Joey Bosa is not having a good start to his career with the Buffalo Bills.
The new Buffalo Bills defensive end pulled his calf muscle while training at the team’s facility last week and will be out until training camp, Sean McDermott told reporters on Tuesday.
Bosa will not participate in organized team activities this week.
This is horrible news as the soon-to-be 30-year-old Bosa signed a one-year, $12.6 million contract with Buffalo this offseason, including $12 million guaranteed.

Joey Bosa spent the first nine years of his career with the Chargers organization, where he recorded 343 combined tackles, including 87 for loss and 72 sacks. He’s a five-time Pro Bowler.
McDermott also told reporters that in addition to Bosa’s injury, star running back James Cook is not present at OTAs as he seeks a new contract.
Cook is entering the final season of his rookie contract and will be an unrestricted free agent next spring.

Head coach Sean McDermott added that Bosa will most likely not take part in team activities until the Bills return for training camp in July.
The Bosa situation is alarming since he joined the team as a free agent, signing a one-year, $12.6 million contract after being released by the Los Angeles Chargers.
Buffalo brought him in with the hope that he could boost the pass rush. Unfortunately, Bosa has also been susceptible to injuries throughout his career.
As long as Joey Bosa’s calf injury isn’t something that lingers, this could be a non-issue for the Bills once the season begins.
