The LA Chargers lost Mike Pouncey to season-ending hip surgery, but it might be a good thing.

The LA Chargers suffered yet another season-ending injury. Four-time Pro Bowler Mike Pouncey is joining Derwin James and Drue Tranquill on injured reserve. He will undergo hip surgery later this month, which will end his season before it even started.

Pouncey’s tenure ended in Miami due to the same injury. He was told at the time that he likely would require a hip replacement down the road, and this probably doesn’t help.
