Chargers’ Joey Bosa unveils a new plan for his playing time

Los Angeles Chargers star Joey Bosa is finally off the injury report as his team makes final preparations for the Week 11 primetime showdown against the Cincinnati Bengals.

Bosa has had a steady pitch count since returning from his nagging hip injury and recently hinted that he would stay roughly in the 20-snap range.

However, just days before kickoff against the Bengals, Bosa revealed that he believes he could be in the 30 or even 30-plus snap range. Daniel Popper of De Athletics.

That’s a great sign for the Chargers, besides the simple fact that they need to find a way to stop a Bengals offense with Joe Burrow, Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins.

First, it’s a sign that things continue to go well for Bosa, who has been frustrated by his inability to help the team more often this season.

And second, it’s a good time for Bosa to go even further Khalil Mack is struggling with an injury for which he suffered a setback last week.

If Bosa can play a role in a win and stay fresh for the rest of the season, the early problems for player and team will be long forgotten as they make a play-off push.
