-- J.C. Jackson Refused to Play for Chargers Last Week --
Sun Oct 8, 2023 --from FFMastermind.com
NFL.com reports by the time last Sunday rolled around, it was clear the Los Angeles Chargers and CB J.C. Jackson were headed for a divorce. The situation was not working, Jackson was not playing, and the defense was performing better without him on the field. Before the Chargers traded their one-time free-agent prize to New England, where Jackson began his career, there was one last straw: Sources say Jackson repeatedly refused to go into the game against the Raiders on Oct. 1st, standing on the sideline with his shoes untied even when a teammate was banged up and needed to come off the field. Multiple coaches attempted to persuade Jackson, a healthy scratch for the Chargers' Week #3 game against Minnesota, to enter the game in the third quarter after CB Michael Davis injured his ankle. Jackson refused, saying, among other things, that he wasn't warm enough to play, per sources.

-- Joey Bosa Bulking Up --
Thu Aug 10, 2023 --from FFMastermind.com
NBC Sports reports Los Angeles Chargers LB Joey Bosa says he’s eating absurd quantities of food in an effort to gain weight this offseason. Bosa said he eats 4,500 to 5,000 calories a day and is trying to bulk up to get stronger and harder for offensive linemen to move. Bosa weighed in at 269 pounds at the 2016 Scouting Combine, but he said he has lost weight during his NFL career in an effort to get quicker, and he played last year at about 250 pounds. “Eating isn’t really enjoyable these days,” Bosa said. “It’s more so just part of the job.” Bosa says he feels stronger, and a stronger Bosa has the potential to be a nightmare for opposing offensive linemen.
-- Keenan Allen No Longer Stuck in the Slot --
Wed Aug 9, 2023 --from FFMastermind.com
NBC Sports reports Los Angeles Chargers OC Kellen Moore was hired after the team parted ways with OC Joe Lombardi in the wake of their playoff loss to the Jaguars and WR Keenan Allen said he’s installed a more versatile passing game than the team had the last couple of years. That change has meant Allen is playing all over the field after being more limited in the former scheme. “With Lombardi, I was stuck at the slot the whole time,” Allen said. “I’m inside and outside now, we’re all kinda inside and outside now, playing everything.” Allen said he’s watching a lot of film of Moore’s offenses with the Cowboys and sees himself playing a similar role to WR CeeDee Lamb because he “moves around a lot, slot, inside and outside.”
-- Joey Bosa Bulks Up --
Fri Jul 28, 2023 --from FFMastermind.com
The Athletic reports Los Angeles Chargers LB Joey Bosa has bulked up to 265-270 pounds after spending the past two years playing at closer to 250. Bosa wants to play with more power. “I just think I’ll be a much more effective player and pass rush with my power, and be able to play the run a little more dirty.” Bosa said. “I kind of played at that weight for my first four or five years. Just recently with the outside linebacker stuff, have felt comfortable dropping, but I think it’s a big part of my game to be able to be powerful and be strong. I think it was definitely a good change this offseason.”

-- Austin Ekeler Stuck with the Chargers? --
Wed Apr 5, 2023 --from FFMastermind.com
NFL.com reports roughly three weeks have passed since Los Angeles Chargers RB Austin Ekeler first requested and received permission to explore trade options, and he's yet to find a suitable partner. He's still focusing on the same key details in his search, but for the first time since he requested his freedom, Ekeler has admitted he might not end up leaving Los Angeles in 2023. "When it comes down to what's going on with the whole trade and all that stuff, really, look, we're trying to find a long-term partner," Ekeler said. "That's what we want. We want someone who wants to sign us for a few years and sees us not just in the immediate future, but a couple years out. Once everything halted with the Chargers, alright, it was time to go and see if we can find value somewhere else because they just kind of showed that they weren't interested at that time. Time will play out. Who knows? We'll see what happens with the draft. But it's a situation where, look, if a team wants me in the long term, it's a year where they're gonna have to give up picks and then also have to renegotiate, so that's kind of playing against us for sure. But we'll see, like I said. Time will tell, and we'll see what happens after the draft. Look, I guess the worst-case scenario right now out of all of it, I'll come back and I'll have to play for the Chargers for a year and bet on myself and then be a free agent next year."

But there doesn’t appear to be much concern about it. “I don’t know when exactly he’ll be cleared,” Telesco said. “We’ll kind of see where he is as we get into like probably more May 1.” “Good thing is, his surgery is a common surgery. … Just kind of see where he is in his rehab and see what we’re actually doing on the field.”

-- Chargers Say They Appreciate Austin Ekeler, But... --
Sun Mar 26, 2023 --from FFMastermind.com
NBC Sports reports the Los Angeles Chargers gave RB Austin Ekeler permission to seek a trade two weeks ago after the sides failed to come to an agreement on a new contract. He remains a Charger with no apparent interest from any other team, and the Chargers are hoping it stays that way. “We’ve been in full communication with his team,” HC Brandon Staley said on Sunday. “I think there’s alignment and a way forward. We want him to be a Charger. I think that that’s something that [General Manager] Tom [Telesco] has said. It’s something I’ve said. We want this guy to be a Charger. We’re also respectful of his position, and we’re going to see where it goes. There’s going to be time now between now and our first game, and we’ll see what happens. But I know the Chargers feel very strongly about RB Austin Ekeler. He’s just been fantastic for us.” If the Chargers want to make Ekeler happy, at the very least, they need to bump up his salary from his current $6.5 million for 2023 into the $10 million range, since he is still clearly a franchise back. Otherwise, he could withhold his services and eventually force a trade or a release.

I want a team that wants me long-term. I’m at the peak of my game, I’m going to score you another 20 touchdowns. As long as I’m healthy I’m going to score 20 touchdowns, I’m going to have 1,600 all-purpose yards. I’m getting half my value of what I can be getting. So I am relentlessly pursuing someone who wants me.”
