The news is in: Joey Bosa is officially hitting the IR. It’s a blow in of itself to lose Bosa for at least a month to repair a groin injury. Let alone another All-Pro addition to the already alarming list of battered Chargers. In case you’ve been living under a rock, let’s have a look. Brace yourselves, Bolt Fam.

• Keenan Allen
• Corey Linsley
• JC Jackson
• Rashawn Slater
• Joey Bosa

That’s without even mentioning the elephant in the injury room. Justin Herbert. You know, the Chargers franchise QB? The guy who holds a majority of the team’s success on his shoulders? Yeah, that guy… Amongst a list already comprised of 5 Pro Bowlers.

The Injury Bug Bites Again

It’s been a rough going for the Chargers ever since their Week 1 victory against the Raiders. But, if there’s one thing us Bolt Family are used to – it’s injuries. Especially in recent history.

I’m not sure if there’s something in the water down here in San Diego/Los Angeles, or we have a secret spy on our training staff; but something is going on. And it needs to stop! In all seriousness, the worst part is, is that it’s something the Chargers simply can’t control. Maybe it’s the Football Gods. Maybe it’s just bad karma. Who knows?

Brace Ourselves

Whatever it is, things are getting scary over here in Southern California. Fingers are crossed that JC, Keenan Allen, and Bosa will get well soon. But until then, guys need to step up. 

I’m talking to you, Khalil Mack. I’m talking to you, Mike Williams. Especially talking to you, Storm Norton. In full transparency, Storm Norton has been my least favorite starter in Chargers recent history. But, it is what it is, and here we are. Storm and the rest of the number 2’s and 3’s need to make some plays. If they don’t, the Chargers could find themselves in a deep hole in an even deeper division. BOLT UP, backups!
