Chargers' Joey Bosa: Tabbed with fifth-year option

The Chargers have exercised the fifth-year option on Bosa's contract, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

With 134 tackles (101 solo) and 28.5 sacks in 35 career games, Bosa has shown no real weakness aside from durability. There's been no report of his 2018 foot injury lingering into the offseason, and he's now under contract at a discount price through 2020. The third overall pick from the 2016 NFL Draft will celebrate his 24th birthday in July.
