Joey Bosa did not waste time making an impact against the Jacksonville Jaguars in the Wild Card Game.

On the second play of the game, quarterback Trevor Lawrence attempted a pass across the middle to Christian Kirk. Bosa read the play, disengaged from his blocker, and got a hand on the pass. Bosa’s tip led to an interception for Drue Tranquill and gave the Chargers the ball deep in Jacksonville territory.

Bosa only played in 5 regular season games in 2022 after suffering a groin injury in Week 3. The star defensive end made his return in Week 17 against the Rams. Prior to the Wild Card matchup with the Jaguars, Bosa was taken off of the injury report.

The Chargers could not have asked for a better start to the game. The Tranquill INT quickly led to an Austin Ekeler score to put the Chargers up 7-0 on the road.
