Nick Bosa Injury News & Updates

Bosa (knee) underwent surgery to address his torn ACL on Friday, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Bosa suffered a torn ACL in his right knee in the team's Week 3 win over the Cardinals, and his surgery Friday "went great" according to head coach Kyle Shanahan. The defensive end will shift his focus to being ready to go for training camp in 2026.

The 49ers placed Bosa (knee) on injured reserve Thursday.

Bosa torę his ACL in last Sunday's win over the Cardinals and will miss the remainder of the season. He's slated to undergo surgery Friday, as the star edge rusher suffered a clean tear of the ACL, paving the way for a relatively straightforward rehab process. Bosa turns 28 years old next month and will wrap up the 2025 campaign with 17 tackles (nine solo), including 2.0 sacks, two forced fumbles and one fumble recovery across three regular-season contests. He was on his way to yet another big season on the stat sheet.

Coach Kyle Shanahan confirmed Monday that Bosa is out for the season with an ACL injury, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Per Matt Barrows of The Athletic, Shanahan noted that there was no additional damage to Bosa's knee beyond an ACL tear, but the star defensive end faces a lengthy recovery period, nonetheless. In his absence, Bryce Huff, Mykel Williams and Yetur Gross-Matos are candidates to see added roles in the 49ers defense going forward, according to Vic Tafur, Dianna Russini and Matt Barrows of The Athletic.

Bosa (knee) is feared to have suffered a season-ending ACL tear during Sunday's win over the Cardinals, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Bosa appears set for season-ending surgery, despite initial reports indicating that he had avoided an ACL tear after being forced out of Sunday's 16-15 win over the Cardinals. The 49ers haven't yet officially confirmed the severity of Bosa's injury, but expectations are that the team will have to proceed forward without the the five-time Pro Bowler. Schefter reports that Bosa suffered a 'clean' ACL tear, which will at least provide him a clearer rehab process as he works to get fully healthy for the 2026 season.

Bosa (knee) did not tear his ACL when he got injured during Sunday's 16-15 win over the Cardinals, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

The defensive end suffered the injury in the first quarter and did not return. After the win, San Francisco coach Kyle Shanahan said tests would be needed to determine a diagnosis, per Barrows. The five-time Pro Bowler has 17 tackles (nine solo), including 2.0 sacks, two forced fumbles and a fumble recovery on the young season.

Bosa (knee) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Bosa suffered the injury late in the first quarter, and after being evaluated by trainers in the locker room, it has been determined that the injury is severe enough for him to not return Sunday. With Bosa out and Mykel Williams (wrist) questionable to return, the 49ers will need to lean on Yetur Gross-Matos, Bryce Huff and Sam Okuayinonu at defensive end.

Bosa is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Cardinals due to a knee injury, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Bosa appeared to suffer a knee injury late in the first quarter after being hit hard on a double team, per Wagoner. Bosa was in the blue medical tent before departing for the locker room, where he will be evaluated to determine whether he can return to Sunday's game. Yetur Gross-Matos, Sam Okuayinonu and Bryce Huff will see more snaps at defensive end for as long as Bosa is out of the game.

Bosa recorded nine total tackles (three solo), including 1.0 sacks, during Sunday's 26-21 win over the Saints.

The 27-year-old was one of three 49ers to get after the quarterback during the Week 2 win, taking down Spencer Rattler in the fourth quarter. Bosa has had an impressive start to his seventh season in the NFL, having now tallied 15 total tackles, including 2.0 sacks, and one forced fumble over two games. He's expected to remain one of the league's most productive edge rushers as the 49ers take on the Cardinals in Week 3.

Bosa recorded six solo tackles, including 1.0 sacks, while also adding a forced fumble and a fumble recovery in Sunday's 17-13 win over the Seahawks.

Bosa was a major problem for Seattle, recording a strip sack of Sam Darnold in fourth quarter, recovering the fumble and effectively ending the game. The defensive end has registered at least 9.0 sacks in each of the last four seasons and five of his six total campaigns in the NFL, and he has now picked up where he left off to open 2025.

Bosa (neck) was not listed on Wednesday's injury report, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Neck soreness limited Bosa's practice participation during training camp. He appears to be past the issue and will have a clean bill of health entering Sunday's regular-season opener against the Seahawks. Bosa logged 52 tackles (33 solo), including 9.0 sacks, one interception, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery across 14 regular-season games in 2024.

Bosa (neck) was limited to individual drills during Tuesday's training camp practice, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Bosa was held out of practice prior to sitting out of the 49ers' second preseason game at Las Vegas with neck soreness, and it still appears to be ailing him ahead of Saturday's preseason game versus the Chargers. As long as he's still sidelined, Sam Okuayinonu will be a contender for first-team reps on the edge.

Head coach Kyle Shanahan said Thursday that Bosa is dealing with neck soreness and could be back at practice next week, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Bosa was held out of Thursday's training camp practice due to his neck issue. It doesn't look like he'll play against the Raiders on Saturday, but if he returns to practice next week as Shanahan suggests, then Bosa could be available to suit up for the 49ers' preseason finale against the Chargers on Saturday, Aug. 23. Bosa was limited during the second half of the 2024 campaign due to oblique and knee injuries, and he finished the regular season with 52 tackles (33 solo), including 9.0 sacks, one interception, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery over 14 games.

Bosa finished with 52 tackles (33 solo), 9.0 sacks, one interception and one fumble forced across 14 starts in 2024.

Bosa didn't live up to the lofty expectations set in previous seasons despite providing well-rounded statistics. The 2022 DPOY didn't sniff that honor this year after dealing with an oblique injury that cost him three games of action. Bosa didn't get rolling again until Week 17 when he produced a pair of sacks against Detroit. With the 49ers missing the playoffs, the elite edge rusher will have a full offseason to return to full strength before running things back in 2025.

Bosa (knee) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Cardinals, Bo Brack of GoPHNX.com reports.

Bosa appears to have recovered from his knee injury in time to suit up Sunday, as he began the 49ers' week of practice with consecutive DNPs before upgrading to a full session Friday. The All-Pro defensive end has appeared in 13 games this season, recording 52 total tackles, including 9.0 sacks, one interception and one forced fumble. With Bosa back at full health, he's expected to wreak havoc on the Cardinals' offensive line and cause problems for Kyler Murray in Week 18.

Bosa (knee) did not practice Wednesday.

Bosa had previously been dealing with oblique and hip issues in recent weeks, so the knee injury appears to be a new one for the star edge rusher. With San Francisco eliminated from playoff contention and Brock Purdy (elbow) already out for Week 18, it wouldn't at all be shocking to see Bosa not play in Sunday's season finale against Arizona.

Bosa (hip/oblique) is active for Sunday's game against the Dolphins.

Bosa logged a LP/DNP/LP practice week while working through hip and oblique injuries, but the veteran pass rusher has done enough to be cleared for Sunday's game. He registered four tackles (two solo) during the 49ers' Week 15 loss to the Rams.

Bosa (hip/oblique) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Dolphins, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Bosa appeared to be trending toward not playing in Sunday's contest after downgrading from a limited practice session Wednesday to a DNP on Thursday. The Ohio State product then practiced in a limited capacity again Friday, giving himself a chance to return in Week 16. If he's unable to play through his hip and oblique injuries Sunday, Robert Beal (ankle, questionable) or Yetur Gross-Matos will likely start opposite Leonard Floyd.

Bosa (oblique/hip) was a non-participant at the 49ers' practice Thursday, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Bosa was able to participate in a limited capacity to open the week Wednesday, taking a step backwards in his activity level just a day later. With the 49ers unlikely to make the postseason, the team will likely be very conservative with their superstar edge rusher. If Bosa can't go in Week 16, Yetur Gross-Matos and Robert Beal would stand to see an increase in workload Sunday versus the Dolphins.

Bosa (oblique/hip) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

Bosa returned from a three-game absence to play in the 49ers' Week 15 loss to the Rams this past Thursday, finishing with four tackles (two solo) while playing 47 defensive snaps. He should be able to play against the Dolphins on Sunday unless he downgrades to a DNP over the next two days.

Bosa (oblique/hip) is active for Thursday night's matchup with the Rams, Lindsey Pallares of the 49ers' official site reports.

This ends a three-game absence for the four-time Pro Bowler and 2022 NFL Defensive Player of the Year, who accumulated 36 tackles (24 solo), including 7.0 sacks, an interception, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery in his first 10 games of 2024. Bosa was listed as a non-participant on the 49ers' first two practice reports of the week and a limited participant Wednesday, so his snap count in Thursday's game will be worth monitoring.

Bosa (oblique/hip) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Rams but is considered likely to play, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

The 49ers will put Bosa through a pregame workout before deciding whether he'll play Thursday, but barring any setbacks, the star defensive end looks on track to put an end to his three-game absence. Bosa was listed as a non-participant on the 49ers' first two Week 15 practice reports before upgrading to limited activity Wednesday, so the 49ers could keep his snap count in check if he's cleared to play.

Bosa (oblique) is listed as questionable ahead of Thursday night's matchup against the Rams, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Bosa's oblique injury has keep him on the sidelines for each of the 49ers' last three games, but he's got a chance to return in Week 15. The All-Pro defensive end upgraded from a DNP on Tuesday to a limited session Wednesday, suggesting that he's trending in the right direction ahead of Thursday's contest. Bosa would be a significant addition to the 49ers' defense, especially since San Francisco recorded two or fewer sacks in two of the three games he missed.

Bosa (oblique) was estimated as a DNP on Monday's injury report, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Bosa has been sidelined for the 49ers' last three games due to a left oblique injury that he aggravated in Week 11 against the Seahawks. Although he is considered day-to-day heading into Thursday's game against the Rams, Bosa hasn't been able to participate in practice since the injury, and he would be a long shot to play unless he returns to practice Tuesday or Wednesday.

Bosa (oblique) still is considered day-to-day as the 49ers start Week 15 prep Monday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Bosa was unable to practice last week leading up to his third straight absence due to the injury. Considering the lack of practice time and a short week with the 49ers hosting the Rams on Thursday, it seems unlikely the Ohio State product would be able to suit up for the divisional matchup. However, a definitive answer likely will surface closer to kickoff.

Bosa (oblique) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bears, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

Bosa was unable to practice this week due to a left oblique injury, and he is set to miss his third straight game. Given the 49ers' have a short turnaround before their next game against the Rams on Thursday, Dec. 12, it's possible Bosa could be sidelined for a fourth game. Robert Beal and Yetur Gross-Matos will continue to see more defensive snaps due to Bosa's injury.

Bosa (oblique) is listed as doubtful ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Bears, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Bosa logged back-to-back DNPs to begin San Francisco's week of practice and is expected to miss his third consecutive game Sunday after sustaining an oblique injury in a Week 11 loss to the Seahawks. Robert Beal and Yetur Gross-Matos will likely continue to see increased snaps with the 49ers' first-team defense while Bosa remains sidelined in Week 14.

Bosa (oblique) will not practice Wednesday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Bosa has missed the 49ers' last two games and it appears he may be in danger of missing a third. Considering he hasn't practiced since suffering the injury in Week 11 against the Seahawks, he'll likely need to practice in some fashion Thursday or Friday to have any chance of suiting up against the Bears on Sunday.

Bosa (hip/oblique) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Buffalo, Lindsey Pallares of the 49ers' official site reports.

Bosa will miss his second straight contest due to hip and oblique injuries. The veteran pass rusher didn't practice at all this week, so he didn't come close to being able to suit up. Robert Beal will likely log more than his usual allotment of defensive snaps with Bosa out of action Sunday.

Bosa (hip/oblique) will not practice Wednesday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Bosa missed last Sunday's loss to the Packers after he was injured in the Week 11 loss to the Seahawks. Sam Okuayinonu, Leonard Floyd and Yetur Gross-Matos paced the 49ers in pass-rushing snaps off the edge versus Green Bay and would likely do so again if Bosa is unable to play Sunday in Buffalo.

Bosa (hip/oblique) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Packers, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Bosa didn't practice all week after sustaining hip and oblique injuries in San Francisco's Week 11 loss to the Seahawks, and he won't travel with the team to Green Bay as he rehabs his oblique, per Inman. The 49ers' pass-rush unit could struggle without Bosa in Week 12, as the 27-year-old has posted a team-high 7.0 sacks through 10 games this season. Yetur Gross-Matos is likely the top candidate to replace Bosa on San Francisco's defensive line Sunday.

Bosa (hip) did not participate in Thursday's practice, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

San Francisco coach Kyle Shanahan also told the KNBR radio station that Bosa is "in jeopardy of not playing Sunday" against the Packers, per Branch. Bosa injured his hip on a third quarter sack of Seattle quarterback Geno Smith during last Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Seahawks. The four-time Pro Bowler has yet to miss a game this season, and Robert Beal and Yetur Gross-Matos are the 49ers' next available defensive ends.

Bosa (hip) was listed as a DNP on Wednesday's practice report, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Bosa injured his left hip while sacking Geno Smith during the third quarter of Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Seahawks, and the former was unable to return to the contest. Bosa would be in danger of missing his first game of the 2024 regular season if he's unable to participate in practice, at least in a limited capacity, over the next two days. If Bosa is inactive for Sunday's game against the Packers, either Robert Beal and Yetur Gross-Matos would start at defensive end opposite Leonard Floyd.

Bosa (hip) has about a 50-50 chance to suit up next week against the Packers, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

The defensive end sustained the hip injury during Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Seahawks and did not return to the game. San Francisco coach Kyle Shanahan told reporters Monday that, "There's just as good of a chance for him to not play as play," per Wagoner. If the 2022 NFL Defensive Player of the Year can't suit up, Robert Beal and Yetur Gross-Matos are next in line to replace him.

Bosa (hip) is concerned that he will have to miss time after leaving Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Seahawks and not returning, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

The defensive end sacked Seattle quarterback Geno Smith in the third quarter but appeared unable to celebrate due to the injury, per Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle. Bosa entered the game with a questionable tag due to an injury to his other hip, and he believes he may have overcompensated during the contest, according to Wagoner. The 2022 NFL Defensive Player of the Year has 32 tackles (22 solo), including 5.5 sacks, an interception, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery in 2024.

Bosa (hip) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest against the Seahawks.

Bosa reached Geno Smith for a sack early in the third quarter, but he appeared to be in too much pain to celebrate according to Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle. The defensive lineman received treatment on his left hip while the Seahawks continued their drive, but his status for the rest of the game is now up in the air.

Bosa (hip) is active for Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Lindsey Peters of the 49ers' official site reports.

Bosa's ability to practice in a limited capacity Friday earned him a questionable tag, and the 2019 first-round pick will suit up for Sunday's NFC West clash. Bosa enters Week 11 having logged 2.5 sacks over his last three outings.

Bosa (hip) was a limited practice participant Friday and is listed as questionable against the Seahawks on Sunday, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Bosa opened the week with consecutive DNPs due to a hip injury that he played through in Week 10 against the Buccaneers. However, he was able to return to practice Friday, albeit in a limited capacity, and it's likely that he'll work through the issue in Sunday's NFC West clash. Bosa has logged 32 tackles (22 solo), including 5.5 sacks, one interception, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery through nine regular-season games.

Bosa (hip) will not practice Wednesday, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Bosa played through his hip issue in the 49ers' Week 10 win over the Buccaneers and recorded four total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, across 49 defensive snaps. Wednesday's DNP is likely precautionary, but the All-Pro defensive end could be in jeopardy of missing Sunday's matchup against the Seahawks if he can't upgrade to at least limited participation either Thursday or Friday.

Bosa tallied four tackles (three solo), with 1.0 sack, in the 49ers' win versus Tampa Bay on Sunday.

Bosa had another strong performance despite having been questionable heading into the game due to a hip injury. Throughout the first nine games of the season, the 2019 first-round pick has totaled 32 tackles (22 solo), with 5.5 sacks, and an interception.

Bosa (hip) is active for Sunday's Week 10 battle against the Buccaneers, Lindsey Pallares of the 49ers' official site reports.

Bosa was questionable heading into the weekend due to a hip injury. Though he's going to suit up Sunday, the veteran defensive end could log less defensive snaps than usual, per Matt Barrows of The Athletic. Bosa has 4.5 sacks through eight contests, putting him on pace for his lowest total since 2020, when he played in only two games due to injury.

Bosa (hip) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Inman relays that Bosa was "extremely limited" during Friday's practice after suffering a hip pointer injury during Wednesday's session. That could mean Bosa is a true game-time decision for Sunday's game, and even if he does play, the 2019 first-round pick may operate on a limited amount of plays, per Matt Barrows of The Athletic. Either way, Robert Beal and Sam Okuayinonu should see increased snaps on defensive alongside starting defensive end Leonard Floyd.

Bosa (hip) was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday's injury report.

Bosa was playing through an elbow injury prior to the 49ers' Week 9 bye, but it appears he is now dealing with a hip issue that limited his participation in Wednesday's practice. He'll have two more chances to increase his practice participation ahead of Sunday's game against the Buccaneers. Bosa has logged 28 tackles (19 solo), including 4.5 sacks, one interception, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery across eight regular-season games.

Bosa recorded three tackles (two solo), with 1.0 sack, during San Francisco's win Sunday over the Cowboys.

Bosa was dealing with an elbow injury throughout the week, but that did not slow him down Sunday as he managed to record his 4.5th sack of the season. His strong performance went beyond just the stat sheet however, as the 2019 first-round pick also altered a pass that ended up being intercepted by Ji'Ayir Brown.

Bosa (elbow) was a full participant during Friday's practice and does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against Dallas.

Bosa logged consecutive limited practices to open the week due to an elbow injury, but that doesn't appear to be cause for concern after he was able to practice without restrictions Friday. The 2019 first-round pick has logged 25 tackles (17 solo), including 3.5 sacks, one interception, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery over the first seven games of the regular season.

Bosa (elbow) was a limited participant in San Francisco's practice Wednesday, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury Newsreports.

Bosa popped up on the injury report Wednesday due to an elbow injury. While the 2019 first-round pick will look to be good to go for Sunday's matchup versus the Cowboys, if he ends up being limited by the injury, Robert Beal would likely see increased playing time.

Bosa finished Sunday's 24-23 loss to the Cardinals with four solo tackles and one interception.

Bosa picked off Kyler Murray late in the second quarter, which led to a 26-yard field goal by punter Mitch Wishnowsky eight plays later. It was Bosa' second career interception, with his first coming in his rookie season in 2019. Bosa is up to 18 tackles (14 solo), including 3.0 sacks, one interception, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery through the first five games of the regular season.

Bosa recorded five tackles (four solo), including 1.0 sacks, and he recovered a fumble he forced during Sunday's 30-13 win over the Patriots.

Bosa was held without a sack until late in the fourth quarter, when he stripped the ball off Jacoby Brissett and fell on top of it. Bosa is now up to 3.0 sacks through the first four games of the regular season, which is second most on the 49ers behind Kevin Givens (3.5).

Bosa (ribs) is active for Sunday's game against the Rams, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.

Bosa popped up on the 49ers' injury report Wednesday with a rib injury, and he was a limited participant in practice Thursday and Friday. Though he's likely at less than 100 percent health, the 2019 first-round pick will indeed suit up for Sunday's NFC West showdown. Bosa registered five tackles, including 2.0 sacks, during the 49ers' Week 2 loss to the Vikings.

Bosa (rib) is listed as questionable but is expected to play Sunday versus the Rams, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Bosa was added to the 49ers' injury report Thursday and was a limited participant in the team's final two practices of Week 3 prep, but he looks as though he'll be ready to play Sunday, though perhaps at less than 100 percent health. He has accrued seven tackles and two sacks through the 49ers' first two contests.

Bosa (ribs) has been deemed questionable to play Week 3 versus the Rams, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

San Francisco coach Kyle Shanahan explained Friday that Bosa suffered a rib injury during practice this week, per Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area. The issue resulted in the star defensive end being held to limited practice sessions Thursday and Friday. If Bosa were to miss the 49ers' Week 3 game against the Rams, Robert Beal could be asked to step up with an increased workload on defense.

Bosa (ribs) was limited during Thursday's practice session, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

The rib injury appears to be recent, as Bosa did not show up on the 49ers' injury report Wednesday. His participation in Friday's session will provide a better indication on his status for Sunday's NFC West showdown against the Rams. Bosa has tallied seven tackles (five solo), including 2.0 sacks, over the first two games of the regular season.

Bosa recorded five tackles (four solo) including 2.0 sacks during Sunday's 23-17 loss at Minnesota.

Bosa was one of a few bright spots in what ended up being a surprising loss for the reigning NFC champions. He went to the turf with an apparent injury at one point but ended up finishing the game without incident. He's back on track for his fourth straight double-digit sack season.

Bosa finished the 2023 regular season with 53 tackles (34 solo), 10.5 sacks and two forced fumbles while starting all 17 games for San Francisco.

Bosa had a down year based on the lofty standards he set for himself by averaging 17 sacks over his previous two campaigns. 2022's Defensive Player of the Year was not one of the five finalists for the award this season, further highlighting the superstar's underwhelming final results. Even with all of the attention opposing offensive lines direct Bosa's way, the premier edge rusher still coasted to double-digit sacks for the third consecutive season. With a lucrative five-year contract signed this past offseason, Bosa will be bookending a dominant San Francisco defensive line for the foreseeable future.

Bosa had six tackles (four solo), including 1.5 sacks, in Sunday's 28-16 win over the Seahawks.

Bosa got to Drew Lock early in the fourth quarter before combining with Javon Kinlaw for another sack on the next possession. Bosa has now registered at least 1.5 sacks in four of his last five games and leads the 49ers with 9.5 sacks. The addition of Chase Young at the trade deadline has certainly helped Bosa and the San Fransisco pass rush attack.

Bosa tallied five tackles (three solo), including 2.0 sacks, in Thursday's 31-13 Thanksgiving win against the Seahawks.

Bosa was ferocious in his pursuit of Seattle QB Geno Smith, registering five total quarterback hits. He brought down Smith for a solo sack early in the third quarter and twice split a sack in the fourth. Bosa had a relatively slow start to the campaign with a modest 3.0 sacks over his first eight games, but since San Francisco's Week 9 bye he's posted 5.0 sacks across just three contests.

Bosa tallied three tackles, with a sack, in the 49ers' 27-14 win against Tampa Bay on Sunday.

Bosa had another productive outing as he recorded one of San Francisco's four sacks of Baker Mayfield on Sunday. The 26-year-old has compiled 28 tackles (18 solo), with 5.5 sacks, through 10 games this season and will look to add to those numbers versus Seattle on Thursday.

Bosa recorded three tackles (two solo) including 1.5 sacks, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery in Sunday's 34-3 win at Jacksonville.

Bosa found his way into the sack column for the fourth time in his last five games Sunday. He also created a turnover for the first time this season. He's had a down year so far relative to the ridiculous standards he's set for himself over the past couple seasons, but he's still one of the best pass-rushers in the league and a good IDP play in Week 11 versus the Buccaneers.

Bosa had three tackles (two solo), including one sack in Thursday's 30-12 win over the Giants.

Bosa also had two quarterback hits as San Francisco's pass rush overwhelmed New York's banged up offensive line and kept Daniel Jones under constant pressure. The sack was his first since Bosa notched one in Week 17 of last season to bolster his 2022 sack total to 18.5. He failed to record a sack in three playoff games or the first two games of the 2023 campaign.

Head coach Kyle Shanahan announced that Bosa will be a full go for Week 2, Lindsey Pallares of the 49ers' official site reports.

Bosa played just 35 snaps during Sunday's 30-7 win against the Steelers but is expected to resume his normal workload for the team's Week 2 matchup against the Rams. The 2019 first-round pick was still working his way back after he spent the majority of the offseason away from the team due to a contract holdout but is now ready to go for the rest of the season.

Bosa will play in Sunday's game against Pittsburgh, with coach Kyle Shanahan saying Friday that the defensive end looks "ready to go," Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Bosa resumed practicing Thursday after a contract dispute kept him away from the team for all of training camp and the preseason. He's now the highest-paid non-QB in NFL history and seems to have stayed in good shape while he was away from the team. It is possible he plays a few less snaps than usual, but Bosa figures to start and stay on the field for most of the game this Sunday in Pittsburgh.

Bosa rejoined the 49ers for practice Thursday after being reinstated from the reserve/did not report list, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Bosa had been holding out from the 49ers throughout training camp and the preseason and then missed the team's first Week 1 practice Wednesday before coming to terms with San Francisco on a five-year, $170 million contract extension. Even though he remained away from the team for the past six weeks while seeking the richest deal for a defensive player in NFL history, Bosa seemed to keep himself in game shape. Per Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area, Bosa looked to be in "top physical condition" Thursday, even though he was expected to go through no more than a limited day of practice while getting acclimated to the daily football training routine. The 49ers still plan to have the star defensive end suit up Sunday against the Steelers, and he could end up taking on something close to his normal workload if he's able to quell any remaining concerns the coaching staff might have about his conditioning following Friday's practice.

Bosa agreed to a five-year, $170 million contract extension with the 49ers on Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

While full details of the deal aren't yet available, Bosa looks as though he'll break most significant records for non-quarterback contracts. Micah Parsons or Justin Jefferson might challenge Bosa's deal for total and guaranteed money within the next year or two, but Bosa has a solid case as the most valuable non-quarterback in the league, coming off a 2022 season in which he led the NFL in sacks (18.5), knockdowns (28) and pressures (53) while serving as the most important player on the league's best defense. With his lengthy contract dispute ending four days before San Francisco's season opener, Bosa should be available Sunday in Pittsburgh.

Bosa (contract dispute) has still not reported to team facilities Wednesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Bosa continues to seek a new contract from the 49ers, and it looks like the holdout he began late July will continue into the regular season. The star defensive end would be in line to earn a $17.85 million salary in 2023 due to San Francisco exercising his fifth-year option, but he's instead vying for a long-term extension. If Bosa doesn't suit up Week 1 versus the Steelers, Clelin Ferrell will likely step into a starting role across from Drake Jackson.

Head coach Kyle Shanahan is hopeful a deal between Bosa (contract dispute) and the 49ers will be "done soon," Clayton Holloway of NFL Network reports.

Shanahan also indicated he expected to Bosa to be signed around this time, so it is unclear how sincere his optimism is. The star defensive end remains on the 49ers' reserve/did not report list as Week 1 gets closer. He has been the linchpin of San Francisco's defense over the previous two seasons, accumulating a remarkable 34 sacks in 33 games. Clelin Ferrell would be in line to fill in for him opposite Drake Jackson should he ultimately not be ready to go when the season kicks off.

The 49ers placed Bosa (contract dispute) on the reserve/did not report list Wednesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

This move comes as no surprise considering Bosa didn't show up with his fellow San Francisco veterans to training camp Tuesday. He'll likely remain away from the team until he reaches an agreement on a new contract. The linchpin of the 49ers defense is coming off a whopping 34 sacks in 33 games over the last two seasons.

Bosa did not report for camp Tuesday as he continues his contract dispute with the 49ers, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

The 25-year-old is coming off an 18.5 sack season where he led the 49ers to having the best defense in the NFL on a points allowed per game basis (17.2). Bosa has yet to agree to his second contract with San Francisco and general manager John Lynch told reporters he doesn't expect The 2022 NFL Defensive Player of the Year to report to camp without a new deal.

Bosa was named the 2022 Defensive Player of the Year on Thursday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

Bosa has emerged as an elite pass rusher the last two seasons, as he's combined to record 34 sacks across 33 games in that span. He was particularly dominant in 2022, when he managed 18.5 sacks across 16 contests. The 49ers are likely to make signing Bosa to a long-term extension a priority this offseason, as he's set to enter the final year of his rookie contract in 2023.

Bosa (illness) practiced fully Thursday, per the team's official site.

After missing Wednesday's session entirely due to an illness, Bosa was able to partake in Thursday's practice without limitations, ultimately putting him back on track to continue starting at defensive end against the Raiders come New Year's Day. The Pro-Bowl selection currently leads the league with 17.5 sacks despite having missed a game this season.

Bosa didn't participate in the 49ers' practice Wednesday due to an illness, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

There's no word yet on the nature or severity of Bosa's ailment, though it's at least a positive that the illness came near the start of the week rather than closer to Sunday's contest against the Raiders. The ability (or lack thereof) of the NFL sack leader to return to practice over the next two days should provide clarity about his availability to take the field in Las Vegas in Week 17.

Bosa recorded seven tackles (five solo), including two sacks, and forced a fumble in Saturday's 37-20 win over the Commanders.

Bosa registered four quarterback hits in the victory, two of which went for sacks. The second of those takedowns resulted in a fourth-quarter Taylor Heinicke fumble that San Francisco recovered and ultimately converted to a field goal for a 10-point lead. Bosa has wreaked havoc on opposing QBs all season long -- he has at least one sack in 12 of the 14 contests in which he has played and leads the NFL with 17.5 sacks overall.

Bosa (hamstring) is active for Sunday's Week 14 game against the Buccaneers, Cam Inman of The Mercury News reports.

Bosa missed practice all week, but reports earlier Sunday indicated he was in line to suit up anyhow. The star edge rusher's availability is now official, giving him an opportunity to build on his three-sack effort against the Dolphins in Week 13 while facing a Buccaneers offensive line missing star right tackle Tristan Wirfs (ankle).

Bosa (hamstring), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, is in line to play, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

The hamstring injury kept Bosa off the practice field Wednesday through Friday, but it doesn't look as though it'll be significant enough to keep the NFL Defensive Player of the Year candidate from suiting up Week 14. Bosa is coming off a huge three-sack effort in the Week 13 win over the Dolphins and is up to 14.5 for the season, one shy of last season's career-best total.

The 49ers list Bosa as questionable for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers with a sore hamstring, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

According to David Lombardi of The Athletic, head coach Kyle Shanahan said he's "hopeful" Bosa will be able to go Sunday, but the 49ers may wait to assess the star edge rusher in a pregame workout before ruling on his status shortly before the 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff. Even if Bosa plays against the Buccaneers, there's a chance he'll face a more limited snap count than usual, given that the 49ers face a quick turnaround Week 15 with a Thursday night game in Seattle.

Bosa (hamstring) didn't practice Thursday, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Bosa was once again held out of practice Thursday as he continues to deal with a hamstring injury. The defensive end is coming off a season-high three-sack performance in Week 13 against the Dolphins and will likely need to log a full practice before Sunday if he hopes to suit up against Tampa Bay. The 49ers' defensive coordinator DeMeco Ryans shared that Bosa is "working his way back in, doing good," Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Bosa (hamstring) didn't practice Wednesday, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Bosa opened Week 14 prep as a spectator during Wednesday's session, after head coach Kyle Shanahan previously said that the star pass rusher is dealing with a "hamstring irritation" that the team will work through, per David Lombardi of The Athletic. Though the 25-year-old collected a season-high three sacks and forced a fumble on just 38 defensive snaps last weekend versus Miami, his status is definitely something worth monitoring as the week goes on.

San Francisco coach Kyle Shanahan said that Bosa is dealing with a "hamstring irritation" that the team will work through ahead of Week 14 game against Tampa Bay, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.

Bosa recorded a season-high three sacks while playing 37 defensive snaps against Miami on Sunday, though he presumably picked up this injury at some point during this win. Given the star defensive end's importance in San Francisco's pass rush, it's likely the team will take every precaution with this issue during Week 14 prep. Bosa's status on Wednesday's injury report should provide more clarity on his status heading into this Sunday's contest versus the Buccaneers' shaky offensive line.

Bosa recorded four tackles (four solo), including one sack, during Sunday's 22-16 win against the Chargers.

Bosa harassed Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert for much of the night, increasing his season sack total to 9.5 while totaling four quarterback hits Sunday. The star pass rusher has now recorded at least one sack in all but one of his eight games played this season, and is currently tied with Za'Darius Smith (knee) for the second-most sacks in the NFL through 10 weeks.

Bosa (groin) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against Kansas City, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Bosa had six sacks over the first five games of the season before missing last week's loss to Atlanta with a groin injury. The 49ers remain thin at defensive tackle but otherwise look mostly healthy after getting hit hard by injuries for most of October.

Bosa (groin) was a limited participant in practice Thursday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Bosa logged his second limited practice in a row Thursday after missing last week's loss to Atlanta with a groin strain. The star pass rusher recorded 15 tackles and a team-high six sacks over the first five games of the season, so it's possible the 49ers are handling him with extra care as he works back from this injury. Either way, Bosa will have one more practice to increase his activity before Sunday's game against the Chiefs.

Bosa (groin) was a limited participant in the 49ers' practice Wednesday, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.

Bosa did not practice last Wednesday or Thursday but was still listed as questionable heading into Sunday's loss against Atlanta. However, the star pass rusher ultimately remained sidelined for the contest, marking his first absence since sustaining the groin injury in Week 5. Now, the defensive end could be trending toward a return in Week 7, as Bosa said Wednesday that he's "pretty optimistic," though he'll have to see how his groin responds throughout the week of practice, per Lombardi. It will be worth monitoring Bosa's status Thursday and Friday to see if his activity increases before Sunday's tilt versus the Chiefs.

Bosa (groin) is out for Sunday's game against the Falcons, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

Bosa won't take the field in Week 6 after suffering the groin injury in the 49ers' Week 5 win over the Panthers. However, he returned to log a limited practice Friday, which could set him up to return in Week 7, per Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com. San Francisco will be without several key defensive lineman against Atlanta, as Javon Kinlaw (knee) and Arik Armstead (foot) are also inactive.

Bosa (groin) is questionable for Sunday's contest against the Falcons, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Bosa didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday due to a groin injury he picked up during the team's blowout win over the Panthers in Week 5. However, it's not surprising to see the star pass rusher listed as questionable for Week 6 after 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said Bosa still had a chance to play Sunday despite not practicing Thursday, per Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle.

Bosa (groin) did not practice for the second day in a row Thursday, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Bosa has been sidelined since exiting with a groin injury during Sunday's win over the Panthers. 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan said that the pass rusher has "a chance" to play against the Falcons in Week 6, but Bosa's health does not appear to have improved after missing practice Wednesday and Thursday. Bosa now will have just one more practice to improve his status before this Sunday's game in Atlanta.

49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said Bosa has "got a chance" to play Sunday against the Falcons, but the star pass rusher won't practice Wednesday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Bosa suffered a groin strain during last Sunday's win over the Panthers and will miss the team's first practice ahead of Week 6. It appears like he's avoided a significant injury, but he may still be held out as a precaution. Bosa's participation in practice Thursday and Friday should provide further clarity on his availability.

49ers coach Kyle Shanahan said that Bosa suffered a groin strain during Sunday's 37-15 win over the Panthers, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Shanahan added that Bosa's injury will be reevaluated Wednesday, leaving his availability for San Francisco's Week 6 contest against Atlanta up in the air. After recording 15.5 sacks in 2021, the 24-year-old defensive end has gotten off to a hot start through the first five games of this season, tallying 15 tackles and a team-high six sacks. Bosa's potential absence would likely lead to increased opportunities for Charles Omenihu and Drake Jackson while pass rushing opposite fellow defensive end Samson Ebukam.

Bosa (groin) was ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Panthers, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Bosa picked up a groin injury at some point during Sunday's game, which will keep him sidelined for the second half against Carolina. The two-time Pro Bowler recorded one tackle before exiting and has recorded a team-high six sacks through the first five weeks of the season, so his health status will be a major area of concern for San Francisco moving forward. With Bosa sidelined, expect Charles Omenihu, Drake Jackson and Kerry Hyder to see increased usage.

Bosa recorded three tackles including two sacks in Sunday's 24-9 victory over the Rams.

Bosa's two sacks on quarterback Matthew Stafford on Monday night now gives him a league-leading six on the year. The 266-pounder also registered five QB hits and played 78 percent of the 49ers' defensive snaps in Week 4, truly establishing himself as one of the elite pass rushers the NFL has to offer. He'll look to continue his game-wrecking efforts Sunday against the Panthers.

Bosa notched two tackles and one sack during Sunday's 11-10 loss to the Broncos.

Bosa had Russell Wilson under pressure on numerous occasions throughout the game, but his only sack came on the first drive of the second half and went for an eight-yard loss. Across the first three games of the season, the defensive end has 11 tackles and four sacks, putting him on pace to eclipse the career high (15.5 sacks) he set last season.

Bosa finished with four tackles, two sacks and five QB hits in Sunday's 27-7 win over the Seahawks.

Bosa wrecked havoc on Seattle's backfield in the second half, recording his first sack on the first play of the third quarter. He added another sack on a third-and-long play in the fourth quarter. Through two games, Bosa has three sacks and is well on his way to matching his career-high 15.5 sacks from a year ago.

Bosa had five tackles (four solo) and a sack in Sunday's 19-10 loss to the Bears.

San Francisco's defense got off to a dominant start with two sacks and an interception in the first quarter, and Bosa dropped Justin Fields for a six-yard loss on the second sack. The 49ers sputtered on both sides of the ball in the second half and ultimately came away with a loss, but Bosa has picked up where he left off after a 15.5-sack season in 2021.

Bosa was an active participant for Tuesday's practice session, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

After sitting out OTAs, Bosa made his official return to the practice field Tuesday. The 24-year-old has quickly become one the most dominant defensive ends in the league, recording 24.5 sacks in his first 35 career games.

Bosa was at the team facilities Monday, making it very likely he attends minicamp Tuesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Bosa is expected to make his offseason debut at Tuesday's mandatory minicamp, after he was previously absent from OTAs. The defensive end is in a contract year, but he doesn't appear to be considering a holdout for a new deal like other stars in the league have done in the past. Bosa was dominant in 2021, registering 52 tackles including 15.5 sacks while forcing four fumbles and deflecting a pass over 17 contests.

Bosa, who is absent from OTAs, is expected to be at mandatory minicamp next month, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Bosa's absence is believed to be approved and expected, and has nothing to do with any kind of holdout or injury. He should continue to be a force on the 49ers' defensive front as he heads into his fourth season in the league.

The 49ers exercised Bosa's fifth-year, $17.9 million option Monday, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.

Bosa is entering his fourth NFL season and is coming off a 15.5-sack campaign, so there was never a doubt that San Francisco would exercise the team option on the phenom's rookie contract. 49ers general manger John Lynch said the organization will explore a contract extension with Bosa and added, "we're going to do everything we can to keep him a part of the organization. He's a foundational player," Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News repots.

Bosa recorded six tackles (four solo) and 1.5 sacks in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Rams.

Bosa turned in a stellar bounce-back campaign after missing the majority of his sophomore season due to a torn ACL. The 24-year-old phenom finished with 52 tackles (40 solo), 15.5 sacks and four forced fumbles across 17 games, putting himself in the conversation for NFL Defensive Player of the Year. Bosa now will enter the final year of his rookie contract, and he should be in line for a big payday even if he simply replicates this season's dominant results.

Bosa cleared the NFL's concussion protocol Friday and no longer has an injury designation for Saturday's game against the Packers, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Bosa suffered a concussion during the wild-card win over Dallas and was held out of practice at the beginning of this week. He then managed limited participation Wednesday and a full practice Thursday, before clearing the final hurdles Friday morning/afternoon. Bosa is one of the top pass rushers in the league, and he'll have a challenging matchup this week against Aaron Rodgers and his reliable O-line.

Bosa (concussion) is listed as questionable for Saturday's divisional-round contest at Green Bay, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

During the media-access portion of Thursday's practice, Bosa took part in team stretches, according to David Lombardi of The Athletic. Later, coach Kyle Shanahan told Lombardi that Bosa is "looking good" to clear the protocol for head injuries by Saturday's 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff, but the pass rusher will have to pass an examination with an independent neurologist in order to do so.

Bosa (concussion) practiced in a limited capacity Wednesday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

During the portion of the session open to the media, Bosa was spotted carrying his helmet before going to the locker room, according to Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News. It marked Bosa's first notable on-field work since suffering a concussion this past Sunday at Dallas, setting him on a potential path to gain clearance from the protocol for head injuries ahead of Saturday's divisional-round game in Green Bay.

Bosa (concussion) didn't practice Tuesday, Keiana Martin of the 49ers' official site reports.

Late in the first half of Sunday's wild-card matchup with the Cowboys, Bosa was the recipient of a knee to his helmet from teammate D.J. Jones and eventually was ruled out due to a concussion. On Monday, coach Kyle Shanahan relayed that the 49ers were "optimistic" of Bosa's chances to gain clearance from the protocol for head injuries ahead of Saturday's divisional-round game at Green Bay. Having said that, Bosa likely will need to make an appearance at practice Wednesday or Thursday to give himself a chance to do so on a short week.

Bosa has been ruled out of Sunday's wild-card game at Dallas due to a concussion.

While rushing the passer late in the second quarter, Bosa's upper body collided with the lower body of teammate D.J. Jones, snapping his head back in the process. Bosa was able to walk to the locker room, but he didn't return to the field after halftime and won't reenter the contest following the diagnosis. Samson Ebukam and Arden Key will assume Bosa's role for rest of the 49ers' playoff opener.

Bosa finished the 2021 regular season with 52 tackles (40 solo), 15.5 sacks and four forced fumbles.

Bosa bounced back from a major knee injury in 2020 to not only reclaim the dominant form we saw in his rookie campaign, but he also took another step forward as a pass rusher and backfield disruptor. From a fantasy standpoint, the 24-year-old's prowess for accruing sacks helps offset the lower tackle totals of a defensive lineman. Barring injury this postseason and offseason, Bosa will enter the 2022 campaign as one of the top defensive players in the league while serving as the motor that drives San Francisco's defense.

Bosa managed three tackles (two solo) and two sacks during Sunday's overtime win against the Bengals.

Bosa has now brought down the opposing quarterback in five straight games, with seven total sacks in that span. The standout defensive end has a career-high 14 sacks through 13 appearances on the season, and he remains cemented as one of the top fantasy assets in IDP formats. Come Week 15, Bosa will get an opportunity to feast against Atlanta's vulnerable offensive line.

Bosa had three solo tackles and two sacks during Sunday's 30-10 win over the Jaguars.

Bosa already has a career-high 10 sacks in as many appearances this season, in addition to 34 total tackles, one pass breakup and two forced fumbles. The 24-year-old remains one of the top fantasy options in IDP formats heading into a Week 12 matchup against the Vikings.

Bosa had three tackles and two sacks during Sunday's 33-22 win over the Bears.

Bosa played 81 percent of the defensive snaps Sunday and delivered his second multi-sack effort of the season. He has 26 tackles (20 solo), seven sacks and one forced fumble through seven games in 2021.

Bosa posted three tackles (one solo) and one sack during Sunday's 28-21 loss to the Seahawks.

After registering three sacks through the first two weeks of the season, Bosa was held without one by the Packers in Week 3. The 23-year-old got back into the sack column Sunday, and he now has four sacks through four games. Bosa is on track to break his career-high of nine sacks in a single season, a mark he set during his rookie campaign in 2019.

Bosa posted three tackles (two solo), two sacks and a forced fubmel in Sunday's 17-11 win over the Eagles.

Bosa has shown no ill effects from the torn ACL he sustained in Week 2 of the 2020 season, as he has recorded three sacks through two games. The 49ers will host a Week 3 matchup against the Packers, who are still without All-Pro left tackle David Bakhtiari.

Bosa (knee) recorded four tackles (all solo), three tackles for a loss and a sack in Sunday's 41-33 win over the Lions.

Bosa was making his return from a torn ACL that he suffered in the early stages of the 2020 campaign. The 23-year-old phenom looked like his former dominant self, even in a competitive matchup against prized rookie offensive tackle Penei Sewell. The key for Bosa and his IDP managers was that he finished the contest with no setbacks to the surgically-repaired knee. Bosa and the 49ers' defense will look to contain Jalen Hurts in a Week 2 matchup against the Eagles on Sunday.

Bosa (knee) participated fully in practice Wednesday.

With a Week 1 return expected, Bosa managed to handle team reps in training camp last week and finally saw his first full practice Wednesday. The star defensive end remains on track for a start in the season opener Sunday against Detroit.

Coach Kyle Shanahan said Wednesday that Bosa (knee) will handle team reps for the first time in training camp, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

The 49ers have spent training camp easing Bosa back into action, but he's now progressed enough in his recovery from a torn left ACL to resume handling reps in team drills. The team has consistently stated that Bosa is on track for the regular-season opener against Detroit on Sept. 12, and this news represents another step in the right direction.

Coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that Bosa (knee) should be a full participant at practice next week, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.

Bosa has been easing into practice early in training camp, but he's expected to be a full go next week as he returns from a torn ACL. The 23-year-old is on track to be ready for the start of the regular season, as expected.

Bosa (knee) is on the field for Tuesday's padded practice, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Bosa is practicing alongside Dee Ford and Javon Kinlaw, who are both also working back from injury. The star defensive end is expected to be ready for Week 1, but the 49ers will continue to ease him along in recovery from his ACL tear. Until the team is sure that Bosa's chances of injury aggravation have been minimized he'll likely remain limited, but it's certainly encouraging to see him taking part in padded practices.

Bosa (knee) said he's on track to play in Week 1 against the Lions, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Bosa tore his ACL in Week 2 of last season. Coach Kyle Shanahan said earlier in the offseason that he expected Bosa back for training camp, and Bosa's own proclamation that he'll be ready for Week 1 is further evidence that the defensive end's recovery is progressing as planned. Bosa's return would be a huge boon for San Francisco's defense considering he notched nine sacks as a rookie in 2019.

Coach Kyle Shanahan expects Bosa (knee) to be ready for training camp, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

Working his way back from an ACL tear, Bosa is still rehabbing in South Florida while most of his teammates are at voluntary OTAs. Shanahan said the 49ers encouraged the 23-year-old to stay in Florida and stick with his routine, targeting training camp (late July or August) as a realistic goal for a return to practice. Bosa had nine sacks in 16 regular-season games and four more in three playoff contests during his 2019 rookie campaign, before suffering the ACL tear in Week 2 last year.

Bosa is slated to have surgery on his torn left ACL and associated cartilage damage this week, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Bosa was one of a number of 49ers to suffer injuries of varying severity last Sunday against the Jets, but only his and Solomon Thomas' (torn ACL) were season-enders. Once the procedure is complete, the 49ers likely will have a better idea of his recovery timeline, but they are hopeful Bosa will be healthy by Week 1 of the 2021 campaign. For the rest of this season, though, the team's pass rush will be led by Arik Armstead, Dee Ford (back), Kerry Hyder, Dion Jordan and Ezekiel Ansah.

Bosa (knee) has officially been placed on IR by the 49ers.

Bosa tore his left ACL during Week 2 action and will miss the remainder of the 2020 season as a result. With the No. 2 overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft unavailable, the likes of Kerry Hyder, Dee Ford (back) and newcomer Ezekiel Ansah are options to help fill the resulting defensive end void opposite Arik Armstead.

Bosa officially suffered a torn ACL in his left knee Sunday against the Jets, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.

Bosa was carted off the field in the first half and didn't return. Eventually, Adam Schefter of ESPN revealed the second-year pass rusher likely suffered an ACL injury. Now, the results of an MRI have revealed the extent of the injury. While this is a huge hit to the 49ers defense, the one silver lining is that Bosa should be healthy for the start of the 2021 campaign. In his absence, though, some combination of Kerry Hyder, Dee Ford (back) and recent signee Ezekiel Ansah will get pass-rushing snaps opposite Arik Armstead.

Coach Kyle Shanahan noted that Bosa most likely tore his ACL during Sunday's game against the Jets, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

If so, this would be a major hit to the 49ers defense. Look for added details on the severity of Bosa's injury after the rising young star undergoes further testing on his knee.

Bosa (knee) won't return to Sunday's game against the Jets, Andy Vasquez of The Bergen Record reports.

Bosa needed to be carted off the field after suffering the knee injury in the first quarter. With the Ohio State product sidelined, look for Kerry Hyder and Dekoda Watson to see an increased snap count. Expect the team to update Bosa's status following the contest.

Bosa (undisclosed) was carted off the field during Sunday's game against the Jets, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.

The specifics of the injury remain unclear, however, it's certainly a bad sign whenever the cart is needed. As long as Bosa is sidelined, look for Kerry Hyder and Dekoda Watson to see an increased snap count.

Bosa tallied six tackles, a quarterback hit and a forced fumble in Week 1 against the Cardinals.

Bosa made his mark on the game on a few different occasions, most notably forcing a fumble on the Cardinals' opening drive. Later that same possession, he forced an errant throw from Kyler Murray by applying pressure. The reigning rookie of the year winner will remain a key part of the 49ers' defense throughout the season.

Bosa (leg) returned to practice Monday, confirming his strong availability against the Cardinals on Sept. 13, according to Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com.

It appears as if head coach Kyle Shanahan was correct about Bosa's expected availability for the start of the season following a bout with a minor leg injury. Barring any setbacks, look for the 23-year-old to try and build on a rookie campaign that netted him NFC Defensive Rookie of the Year honors while also nearly winning the Defensive Player of the Year award as well.

Coach Kyle Shanahan said Wednesday that he would be surprised if Bosa (leg) wasn't available for Week 1, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Bosa has been sidelined with the muscle strain for the past week, and underwent an MRI to confirm there was no significant damage. The fact that Bosa's coach has confidence his his status for Week 1 is a strong sign for his availability, so expect the All-Pro to be ready to go against the Cardinals on Sept. 13.

Coach Kyle Shanahan termed Bosa "week-to-week" due to a muscle strain in his leg, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

After Bosa complained about soreness in his leg, Shanahan shut him down Sunday, and eventually the pass rusher underwent an MRI, per Wagoner. Shanahan told David Lombardi of The Athletic that the 49ers are "glad he ended up getting that MRI because there was more to it. ... Fortunately, we caught that and we were able to prevent him from hurting it worse." It appears rest is in order for Bosa to ensure he's ready to go for a Week 1 matchup versus the Cardinals on Sept. 13.

Bosa (undisclosed) sat out of Sunday's practice, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Head coach Kyle Shanahan said Bosa took a maintenance day Saturday, but it's concerning that he's now missed two straight practices. If he indeed has an injury, it's likely minor considering Shanahan's initial report, but if he misses a few more practices there should be a better idea of what he's dealing with.

Bosa won AP Defensive Rookie of the Year honors Saturday.

He was also given the Pepsi Rookie of the Year award, but Bosa would undoubtedly trade both awards for a win in the upcoming Super Bowl on Sunday. The second overall selection in the 2019 draft has played a key role in his team's run to the Super Bowl, recording three sacks in San Francisco's pair of playoff wins after accruing nine during the regular season. Teams picking at the top of the draft aced their selections in 2019, as first overall pick Kyler Murray won Offensive Rookie of the Year.

Bosa recorded six solo tackles, two sacks and one defended pass during Saturday's win over the Vikings.

Coming off a stellar regular-season campaign, the rookie second-overall pick logged a dominant performance during Saturday's NFC divisional-round win. Bosa withstood an apparent abdominal injury that kept him on the ground for an extended period in the fourth quarter, but he managed to remain on the field. The likely defensive rookie of the year will look to keep up his momentum in next Saturday's NFC Championship Game against either the Packers or Seahawks.

Bosa (ankle) will in Sunday's contest against Pittsburgh.

Bosa was limited in practice all week, and as evidenced by this news, that was likely a precaution leading into Sunday. The 2019 second-overall pick played in 56 percent of the defensive snaps in Week 1 against Tampa Bay, so it's reasonable to expect a similar workload for Sunday's game,

Bosa (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Steelers, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Bosa was limited in practice all week, but there has not yet been anything to suggest that the rookie is going to be inactive after returning to the lineup in Week 2. Expect an update on Bosa's status to come at some point on Sunday.

Bosa (ankle) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Bosa appears to still not be completely over the ankle injury that plagued him for all of the preseason despite being active for each of the first two games of his rookie season. Given that, it looks like the 49ers are just being cautious with their prized rookie defensive end, but his status should still be monitored through this week of practice.

Bosa (ankle) is active for Sunday's game in Cincinnati.

The second overall pick in the 2019 draft, Bosa missed the entire preseason slate with an ankle sprain but recovered enough to earn 56 percent of the defensive snaps Week 1 at Tampa Bay, a contest in which he tallied three tackles and his first sack as a professional. The ankle issue continued to plague him this week, keeping him out of the first two practices before getting in a limited showing Friday. Considered a game-time call, Bosa will continue to gut it out against a Bengals offensive line that gave up five sacks versus the Seahawks in the regular-season opener.

Bosa (ankle), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bengals, is expected to play in the contest, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

The rookie has been hobbled by the ankle injury since training camp, but he was able to make his NFL debut in the Week 1 win over the Buccaneers, notching three tackles and a sack while playing 56 percent of the defensive snaps. The high-ankle issue still plagued Bosa in practice this week and prompted the 49ers to label the defensive end as a game-time decision heading into the weekend, but barring a setback in warmups, he'll be on track to suit up Sunday. Bosa could again have his snap count monitored while he manages the injury, however.

Bosa overcame the injury to suit up for last week's 31-17 win over the Buccaneers, tallying three tackles, three QB hits and a sack on 38 snaps in his NFL debut. His absence from practice Wednesday and Thursday seems to hint at a minor setback, but the 49ers haven't mentioned anything along those lines. Coach Kyle Shanahan said Bosa looked good at Friday's walk-through, setting up a game-time decision before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Bosa has dealt with a high-ankle sprain since the beginning of preseason, and coach Kyle Shanahan said Bosa's ankle was sore after Sunday's win over the Buccaneers. The team hasn't decided on the rookie's practice schedule this week, but he'll likely need to practice in some capacity by Friday in order to play Sunday versus the Bengals. Bosa posted a sack in his NFL debut and was instrumental in the pass rush with three quarterback hits.

Bosa (ankle) is active for Sunday's Week 1 tilt against the Buccaneers.

The second overall pick in last April's draft will thus make his professional debut after missing all of preseason. Whether Bosa will be on a snap count or not after sitting out the entirety of the exhibition slate remains to be seen, but he'll apparently factor into a rotation on the defensive line at minimum.

While Bosa (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game in Tampa Bay, coach Kyle Shanahan "feels good" about the rookie's ability to play, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.

Bosa has been plagued by a high ankle sprain for the last month, but after logging limited sessions during Week 1 prep, Shanahan seems confident that he'll have the 49ers' 2019 first-round pick available to start the season. If he's deemed active, Bosa may be utilized in a situational role to ease him in.

Bosa (ankle) is expected to play during Sunday's regular-season opener against the Buccaneers, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

Bosa is working his way back from a high-ankle sprain suffered before the beginning of the preseason. It's possible that the rookie out of Ohio State could see a limited snap count Week 1, but it's nonetheless positive news that Bosa is ready to take the field.

Bosa (ankle) practiced on a limited basis Wednesday, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Bosa continues to nurse a high ankle sprain suffered before the start of the preseason. The rookie defensive end has progressed well in his recovery and appears on track to return early on in the regular season, but his chances of suiting up Week 1 at Tampa Bay remain murky at best.

Bosa (ankle) returned to practice Monday, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports. "It went well today," Bosa said afterward. "So we'll see how it keeps going."

During the portion of the session open to the media, Bosa didn't appear to be favoring his right ankle while going through individual drills, which included some work on a blocking sled. Still, the 49ers won't post a Week 1 injury report until Wednesday, at which point the public will have a better sense of the progress made from the high ankle sprain suffered before the start of the preseason.

Bosa (ankle) will participate in Monday's practice session, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

Bosa has sat out the entire preseason with his ankle injury but he appears in line to return early on in the regular season. His participation in practice Monday leaves open the possibility that he'll see the field in Week 1.

General manager John Lynch said Wednesday that suiting up Week 1 is "in play" for Bosa (ankle), Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Bosa continues to progress in his recovery from an ankle sprain. He seems to be on schedule for either Week 1 or shortly thereafter. The No. 2 overall pick of the 2019 NFL Draft, Bosa will play a key role in San Francisco's defense whenever he's ready to go.

Bosa (ankle) is still without a timetable for return but could be ready in time for Week 1 according to GM John Lynch, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Lynch noted it will be "very close" when asked if the first-round pick would be ready for the season opener. Bosa took part in light conditioning drills last week, a reassuring sign that he'll be on the field sooner rather than later.
