SAN DIEGO -- Defensive end Joey Bosa ended his monthlong holdout Monday when he signed a four-year contract with the San Diego Chargers.The team announced the signing five days after the two sides went public in their nasty spat over payment of Bosas $17 million signing bonus and whether the contract would have offset language. The signing also came a day after San Diegos defense played poorly in a 23-10 exhibition loss at Minnesota.Im happy to be here and there is no animosity between us, Bosa said. Its just a matter of business and Im happy to have it out of the way. I am very relieved. I knew this was going to get done. I was surprised how long it took. Of course I would have loved to have been out there with my teammates but the NFL is a business.We just wanted what was fair and what people in that position got the last four or five years, Bosa added.Coach Mike McCoy said he heard of Bosa agreeing to terms before Sundays game and said he had to keep it to myself.Hes here to help us win and I told the team hes here to help us win, McCoy said. Regardless of when he got here, lets go.The Chargers threatened last Wednesday to reduce their offer to Bosa under the assumption he wouldnt be ready to play a full season. Bosa, the No. 3 overall pick out of Ohio State, was the last rookie to sign. The Chargers said last week that they had given Bosas agents their best offer and that it was rejected. Brian Ayrault, Bosas main representative, replied with his own statement saying the team had manipulated the facts and that going public would not strengthen the teams relationship with the player.There was no immediate indication of what led to the deal getting done.Bosa said hes capable of playing in the opener on Sept. 11 at the Kansas City Chiefs.Im obviously a step behind the other guys this late into the game, Bosa said. I trust the coaches and they obviously have a plan ready for me. Im just not sure what that is.Bosa also discussed his mothers involvement in the public side of the contract dispute. Earlier this month, Cheryl Bosa posted a remark toward the Chargers on Facebook. In a reply to someone frustrated by the impasse, she wrote: It bums me out for him so much. Wish we pulled an Eli Manning on draft day.On Thursday, Cheryl Bosa retweeted an article critical of the Chargers and added the comment, The Chargers were petty and terrible even before they tried to stiff Joey Bosa.What do you expect a mom to do? Bosa said. She loves me, she wants whats best for me and she made a dumb decision, like I have before, saying something she shouldnt have said on social media. She honestly had no idea it was public, she thought, because she was sending it to somebody else. Leave it to a mom to mess up on Facebook.Bosas father, John, is a former first-round draft pick of the Miami Dolphins. He held out for 41 days as a rookie.Bosa missed 31 days but said he followed a stringent workout regimen while away.I was doing everything I could to be ready when I showed up here, Bosa said. I think Ive put myself in the best possible shape I could be in.The Bosa spat came amid the Chargers push for a ballot initiative that will ask voters for a $1.1 billion subsidy via an increase in the hotel tax to help pay for a new stadium and convention center downtown.---Online: http://pro32.ap.org/poll and http://twitter.com/AP-NFLBrusdar Graterol Twins Jersey .

Today, we look back at Boston Strong - a citys recovery from tragedy.MIAMI -- Giancarlo Stantons season is not over after all, and the Miami Marlins hope getting their slugger back provides a much-needed spark to their fledgling postseason chances.Stanton, who is limited to pinch-hitting duty for now, batted for pitcher Jose Urena in the bottom of the fifth inning of the Marlins 4-3 loss to the Philadelphia Phillies on Tuesday night and singled to left-center field. He was then removed for a pinch runner.The Marlins reinstated the Home Run Derby champion from the disabled list earlier Tuesday, barely three weeks after his season was thought to be over because of a badly strained groin.Marlins manager Don Mattingly said all that Stanton will be able to do for now is pinch hit, but for a team that is freefalling out of the NL wild-card race any help would be welcomed.Thats what he knows he can do right now, Mattingly said. Were not talking about him going to be in right field three days from now. Thats not going to happen, but I do expect that to happen at some point.Before he was activated, Stanton took part in a simulated game Tuesday, did some baserunning and shagged fly balls. After all that came one final checkup with doctors -- the Marlins almost foreshadowed what was happening by tweeting out a photo of the chiseled Stanton with the words Not Human -- and then the announcement of the roster move.Stanton hurt his left groin trying to stretch a single into a ddouble in what became the final out of an 8-7 loss to the Chicago White Sox on Aug.dddddddddddd13. The Marlins originally thought the severity of the injury meant Stanton would need six weeks to recover.A mere 24 days later, he was back.This is something that could give us a little bit of a bump, hopefully, Mattingly said.Miami came into the day having lost 22 of its past 33 games, and five games out of the second wild-card spot. But the roster looked much better Tuesday than it has in weeks, because not long before Stanton was reinstated the Marlins also activated first baseman Justin Bour from the 60-day disabled list.Stanton leads the Marlins with 25 home runs. Bour is fourth on the team with 15, despite missing the past two months.Obviously, were not in a great spot right now, at this moment, Mattingly said. But again, I talk about it a lot -- things can change quickly. Its good to see guys coming back. ... It cant hurt. I think weve been a little bit beaten up over the last couple weeks, mentally.Also Tuesday, the Marlins recalled left-handers Justin Nicolino and Hunter Cervenka from Triple-A New Orleans, and outfielder Yefri Perez from Double-A Jacksonville.Right-hander Kendry Flores was designated for assignment.The Associated Press contributed to this report.
