San Diego Chargers rookie defensive end Joey Bosa will not play in Sundays season opener against the Chiefs because of a hamstring injury, a source told ESPNs Adam Schefter.Bosa, the No. 3 overall pick in this years draft, has a Grade 1 strain in his left hamstring and is considered week to week, a source told Schefter.Chargers GM Tom Telesco announced earlier this week that Bosa suffered a minor hamstring injury and acknowledged that the former Ohio State star likely wouldnt play Sunday in Kansas City.Telesco said the Chargers are not very optimistic right now when asked about Bosas status during an interview Thursday with XTRA 1360 Fox Sports Radio in San Diego. He went onto say the Chargers have been preparing other players to perform in Bosas absence since he remained unsigned at the start of training camp on July 29.After ending a 31-day holdout by signing a four-year deal with the Chargers last week, Bosa practiced only once on Tuesday in a jersey and shorts.Information from ESPN Chargers reporter Eric D.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- Jimmy Garoppolo entered training camp last month knowing that for the first time in his two-year career he was preparing for his first NFL regular-season start.Patriots coach Bill Belichick has repeated throughout the preseason that New Englands priority at quarterback is to get Garoppolo ready for it.As that clock winds, so too does the one ticking toward the start of Tom Bradys four-game Deflategate suspension. Brady has yet to see the field during the preseason, but as the Patriots approach Fridays third preseason game at Carolina -- a game that traditionally brings extended playing time for starters -- it will be the best dry run that Garoppolo will have prior to the Sept. 11 season opener at Arizona.Whether Brady plays or not this week, the game clearly carries more importance for his understudy the past two seasons.This will be a good test, Garoppolo said. Its pretty much the closest thing well get to Week 1 and well see how it goes.Belichick acknowledged there has been at least some shift toward preparations for the Cardinals.We definitely have an eye on them, he said. Well tighten the focus going forward, but were certainly aware that is where were headed on opening day. I dont think we want to get into a situation early in the season where were knowingly doing something or dealing with something on a high-percentage basis that we havent even talked about up until that point.Brady made his first appearance at practice this week on Tuesday, days after his scheduled preseason debut against the Bears was scrubbed before kickoff when he accidentally cut his right thumb on scissors.The positive from Bradys mishap was it allowed Garoppolo to get extra snaps, and he showed progress from his first start against New Orleans. He pplayed the entire first half and one series in the second half against the Bears, finishing 16 of 21 for 181 yards and a touchdown.dddddddddddd. He was 11 of 18 for 168 yards the week before against the Saints.He also seemed more comfortable in the pocket and throwing into tighter passing windows. The best example came on his lone touchdown throws, when he threaded a ball to tight end A.J. Derby in the back of the end zone.Garoppolo said he hasnt been told who will start Friday night, but his approach hasnt changed.Well find out together, I guess, Garoppolo said. Im preparing like Im gonna be the starter. You never know. Last week was a good example. You never know whats gonna happen.Brady said the rapport and dialogue between he and Garoppolo has been good, noting theres always a good back and forth in our room.It is a unique situation for Garoppolo. Though he will have the starting reins and be expected to fill the leadership role for the first month of the season, this is Bradys offense.Garoppolo is approaching it by focusing on his tasks on the field.Its a tough situation at times, but you cant worry about that too much, he said. Its one of those things where if you start worrying about that, then you cant focus on whatever it is: your reads, your checks, whatever it may be. You just have to go about your business the same way you always have. Im not trying to do something crazy and do something Ive never done before, Im trying to be myself and do what I do.---Online: AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL Twitter feed: www.twitter.com/AP-NFL---Follow Kyle Hightower on Twitter at http://www.twitter.com/khightower ' ' '
