Chargers Star Linebacker Forced Out With Injury In Meaningless Game

The Los Angeles Chargers played all their starters Sunday in a meaningless game.

When teams do that, they run the risk of a star player suffering an injury right before the playoffs. 

That's exactly what happened, as not only did wide receiver Mike Williams leave the game with an injury, but Joey Bosa did as well.

After looking at the replay, it appears Bosa may have aggravated the groin injury that required surgery this season.

Bosa was seen on the Chargers' sideline getting attention from medical staff and grimacing after two plays where he almost successfully sacked Denver Broncos' quarterback Russell Wilson.

With Bosa dealing with injuries all season long, and known for being injury-prone, why would head coach Brandon Staley choose to play him?

We have to wait and see if the star linebacker will be all right, but right now, this is looking really bad for Brandon Staley and the Chargers.
