COSTA MESA, Calif. -- Los Angeles Chargers edge rusher Joey Bosa will be placed on injured reserve, coach Brandon Staley said Wednesday.
Bosa suffered a groin tear in the first quarter of last Sunday's 38-10 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. The four-time Pro Bowl pass rusher will undergo surgery, but Staley said it is anticipated that he will return this season.
"It's going to be a ways, but we expect him to come back," Staley said. "He's optimistic and ready to attack it. He's in a really good frame of mind.
