Chargers look to get Joey Bosa up to speed quickly

SAN DIEGO -- Now that Joey Bosa's contract with the San Diego Chargers is signed, it will be up to coach Mike McCoy and defensive coordinator John Pagano to get the rookie first-round draft pick ready to contribute in time for the regular-season opener against the Kansas City Chiefs on Sept. 11.

Or perhaps the expectation is Bosa will play at a later date? When asked if Bosa will play against the Chiefs, McCoy indicated he will take a wait-and-see approach.

McCoy said he knew before the team’s preseason game against the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday that Bosa would be with the club Monday.
