The Los Angeles Chargers have placed Joey Bosa and Rashawn Slater on injured reserve.

Bosa suffered a groin tear in Week 3 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The edge rusher will undergo surgery, but Brandon Staley said it's anticipated that he will return this season.

"It's going to be a ways, but we expect him to come back," Staley said. "He's optimistic and ready to attack it. He's in a really good frame of mind. It's never easy when you have an injury like that."

At left tackle, Slater tore his left biceps tendon, causing him to undergo season-ending surgery.
