Bills HC Sean McDermott announced Friday that Edge Joey Bosa and LB Terrel Bernard will miss Sunday's game against the Bengals. It's no surprise for Bernard, who was said to be an IR candidate when he initially suffered his elbow injury. (He has missed one game since.) It's also not a shock for Bosa, who left last Sunday's win over the Steelers early with a hamstring injury.

Chargers Edge Khalil Mack is questionable for the second straight week thanks to a groin injury that kept him out of practice once again. Mack missed all three practices last week before playing through a "questionable" tag last week. He made it through just 4 snaps in that game. Edge Joey Bosa, meanwhile, put in his first full practice since Week 3 on Friday and is off the final injury report for the first time since that week as well. He said Friday that they plan to increase his playing time from the 19-20 snaps of the past three games to "about 30, 30-plus."

Chargers Edge Khalil Mack was active for Sunday's win over the Titans ... but only barely. He managed just 4 snaps after entering the contest questionable with a groin injury.

Chargers Edge Joey Bosa is questionable for Sunday's game against the Broncos. Bosa returned for a limited practice Friday but sat out the previous two days with a hip injury, despite coming off a Week 5 bye. Try not to use Bosa in your IDP lineups. The Chargers also ruled out CBs Asante Samuel Jr. and Ja'Sir Taylor. That's two of the team's top three corners, including the primary slot man (Taylor).

Chargers Edge Joey Bosa left after the first defensive play Sunday against the Steelers. He returned later in the quarter but was gone again before the end of the quarter. The team initially called him questionable to return with a hip injury before ruling Bosa out for the game.

Chargers Edge Joey Bosa should be ready for regular duty Sunday against the Steelers. A back injury limited him to just 29% snap share in the Week 2 win over the Panthers. Bosa said earlier this week he expected to be back to full strength for Week 3, though. He got back to a full practice Friday and didn't appear on the week's final injury report. That has boosted Bosa into the top 20 of our Week 3 DL rankings.

Chargers Edge Joey Bosa revealed to reporters Thursday that he broke his left hand during an Aug. 4 joint practice with the Rams and needed surgery, according to ESPN's Kris Rhim. Bosa returned to practice earlier this week for the first time since the injury, wearing a club on the repaired hand. Bosa said he won't miss any games but will sport the club for a while.

The Chargers have placed Edge Joey Bosa on IR for the foot injury that knocked him out of Sunday's game. That will keep Bosa out until at least Week 16, and he'll be difficult to trust in fantasy lineups in his first game back. We've already seen an active Bosa play less than 50% of the snaps in three other games before leaving Week 11 early. That all means you can go ahead and drop Bosa for another option in your redraft IDP league. The 28-year-old is probably still worth holding in dynasty ... but he's running out of value in that format as well.

Chargers HC Brandon Staley said Monday that Edge Joey Bosa is dealing with a foot sprain and will likely land on IR, according to multiple reports. That would knock Bosa out through at least Week 15. At best, Bosa would return for the penultimate week of most fantasy football seasons. And you're not likely to play him in his first game back from this injury. We've already seen Bosa play limited snaps while dealing with injuries this year. Bottom line: You should go ahead and dump Bosa for a replacement in redraft leagues this week.

Chargers Edge Joey Bosa suffered a foot injury early in Sunday's game against the Packers. He's officially questionable to return but left on a cart with a towel covering his face. That sure doesn't seem to bode well for the severity of the injury. We'll watch for more updates.

Chargers Edge Joey Bosa (toe) carries no injury status into Sunday's game against the Chiefs. It's the first time that has been the case for him since Week 2. Bosa's playing time climbed to 47% last week, his highest level since the season opener. This week's status and Bosa's full Friday practice points to further playing-time growth against Kansas City. We've moved Bosa up the Week 7 DL rankings a bit, but the matchup with the Chiefs remains negative for pass rushers.
