Chargers' exec John Spanos does not regret going public in Joey Bosa contract stalemate

SAN DIEGO – He’d do it the same way all over again.

That’s basically the sentiment expressed by John Spanos, San Diego Chargers president of football operations, when asked if he would do things the same way if he could go back in time in his team’s month-long contract stalemate with rookie defensive end Joey Bosa.

Last Wednesday the Chargers’ front office released a public statement, announcing they had pulled the team’s later offer to Bosa, explaining their frustrating with the contract impasse and detailing the team’s latest offer to the rookie first-round selection.

Spanos took it a step further, stating that Bosa’s camp was being unreasonable and calling the fact that the two sides had not come to terms yet “asinine” in a report by the San Diego Union-Tribune.
