No matter if you expected it to happen or not, the news of the Chargers releasing Joey Bosa was quite a shock to read when it broke late Wednesday evening. Why not? He was the last remaining member on the team from the San Diego Chargers following Keenan Allen’s trade last offseason and he was one year short of being with the team for a decade.
It’s incredibly sad to see an era like this come to a close, but the writing was unfortunately on the wall for Bosa’s fate this offseason unless there was a massive restructuring to his deal involving his 2025 cap hit.
