The Chargers have a number of pending contract extensions to consider, but arguably none is more important than the one Joey Bosa is looking for.
Bosa, though not as flashy in 2018 as his All-Pro rookie counterpart Derwin James, is still the most important player on this Chargers defense. In a league driven by quarterbacks, hefty sums of money are given by players who specialize in stopping them.

It’s a misinformed opinion to believe the Chargers don’t pay their players or are cheap, as they have both demonstrated a history of rewarding their own under Tom Telesco and are one of the heavier spending teams in the NFL.
