Chargers defensive end Joey Bosa is entering the final year of his contract, seeking to become one of the league’s highest paid players at his position.
His play from the past few seasons suggests that he is worthy of receiving a hefty paycheck, but he may have to piece together another healthy and productive campaign before Los Angeles conducts the contract.
Bleacher Report’s Maurice Moton, who predicted NFL stat leaders for the 2020 season, believes that Bosa is due for another monstrous year, as he projects him to post 20 tackles for loss.
Moton forecasts Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald to finish with the most in the league (23).
The most tackles for loss that Bosa has amassed in his career is 18, which came this past season.
A dominant force at wreaking in opposing backfields, Bosa has 40 sacks in 51 career games, which makes him the 10th player since 1982 to total 40 or more sacks in his first 50 games.
Posting 20 tackles for loss is well within reach for the former Ohio State product.
Having his sidekick, Melvin Ingram, and a dominant interior presence with Linval Joseph, Justin Jones and Jerry Tillery will create more one-on-one matchups for Bosa.
