Anthony Lynn Responds to Joey Bosa Skipping Chargers Voluntary Workouts

Los Angeles Chargers edge-rusher Joey Bosa has been a no-show for the start of the team's voluntary offseason workout program following a stellar rookie campaign. On Tuesday, new head coach Anthony Lynn told reporters Bosa has opted to shift his focus to workouts with a personal trainer in Florida instead of joining his teammates in Southern California."Your guess is as good as mine," Lynn said when asked about Bosa's status, according to ESPN.com's Eric D. Williams. "Joey and I talked the first day, and he's training with his guy somewhere. But like I said, I'm only focused on the guys that are here trying to build the team."Lynn also said that while he'd appreciate 100 percent attendance, he can't control the decisions players make at this stage in the spring."Ideally, yeah, you'd like everyone here. Were a team," he said, per theLos Angeles Times'Dan Woike. "The ones that are not here, theyre not here."Bosa, of course, is no stranger to being away from the Chargers.Last year's Defensive Rookie of the Year engaged in an extended four-week contract holdout with the club last summer, and the stalemate wasn't broken until shortly before the start of the 2016 campaign.But when he was healthyBosa missed the season's first four games due to a hamstring injuryBosa was a force off the edge. In 12 appearances, the Ohio State product racked up 10.5 sacks and 41 total tackles.According toPro Football Focus, Bosa finished 2016 as the top-ranked player along the Chargers' front seven with a cumulative grade of 89.9.For more news, rumors and related stories about Joey Bosa, the Los Angeles Chargersand the NFL,check out the NFLand Chargersstreams onBleacher Report's app.
