Chargers release Joey Bosa to save salary cap space
The Los Angeles Chargers have released pass rusher Joey Bosa, saving $25.36 million against their salary cap. Bosa, a five-time Pro Bowl selection, has been a key player since being drafted third overall in 2016. Bosa's release comes as he had a high cap hit of $36.4 million for 2025. Despite his strong performance, he has struggled with injuries, playing 14 or more games in a season only four times. Bosa ranks second in team history with 72 career sacks and is expected to attract interest in free agency. He is 29 years old and will turn 30 in July.
