In the absence of news about Joey Bosa’s contract negotiations, Chargers fans are scrambling for anything to cling to.
But the latest shiny object should not be confused with a glimmer of hope.
According to Michael Gehlken of the San Diego Union-Tribune, Chargers fans were stirred up by reports that the Spanos family’s private plane was in Fort Lauderdale, which happens to be Bosa’s hometown.
But there’s no indication the negotiations have moved, and a team official said the plane was in Florida on unrelated business.
Thus, the last remaining unsigned rookie has effectively turned Chargers fans into a bunch of reporters chasing college coaching searches, tracking tail numbers in search of clues.
