Chargers: NFL Defensive Player of the Year could come down to Joey Bosa and his brother

Both brothers are having tremendous seasons with their respective teams and there is a great chance, as good as they are, that they could finish as the top two vote-getters for the Defensive Player of the Year.

Nick Bosa would win that award as a rookie, which is why his season has gotten more headlines. But statistically, things are pretty close.

Nick Bosa: 7 sacks, 20 tackles, 11 tackles for loss, one forced fumble, one interception

Joey Bosa: 7 sacks, 42 tackles,10 tackles for loss, one forced fumble

As you can see, if you’re going to talk about Nick as the DPOY, you have to mention his older brother, Joey, in that conversation.
