Los Angeles Chargers outside linebacker Joey Bosa hasn’t played football since Week 2, but there may not be a single New Orleans Saints fan who is surprised by the defender making his return this week.
Bosa has been dealing with a hip injury, but Taliese Fuaga and Trevor Penning will still have their hands full. If you’re looking at the injury his status is up in the air. Bosa was limited all week in practice and listed as questionable, but both he and Jim Harbaugh expect to see the edge rusher in a limited capacity.
There will be a limit on Bosa, however. Harbaugh said this week, “I would anticipate him being on a snap count.” Bosa also made comments that aligned with this principle by saying, he is “not going to play 60 snaps or anything.”
Injuries have been a constant in Bosa’s career. In the two games he did play this year, he registered 2 sacks and a forced fumble. Even coming back from injury, the Saints must account for the dangerous pass rusher.
