News

  • Notches another sack Week 10

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

    Analysis: 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.

  • Good to go

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

    Analysis: 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.

  • Remains limited Thursday

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

    Analysis: 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.

  • Limited Wednesday

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

    Analysis: Bosa ended up sitting out last week's loss to Atlanta with the groin injury, but the defensive end could be trending toward a return Week 7 against the Chiefs, as he noted Wednesday that he's "pretty optimistic" about his chances of suiting up Sudnay, per Lombardi. Before the 49ers decide on Bosa's status for Sunday, they'll wait and see what he's able to do in practices Thursday and Friday.

  • Out against Falcons

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

    Analysis: 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.

  • Questionable for Sunday

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

    Analysis: 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.

  • DNP again Thursday

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

    Analysis: 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 upgrade his participation level before this weekend's game in Atlanta.

  • Chance to play Sunday

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

    Analysis: Bosa suffered a groin strain during the 49ers' Week 5 win over the Panthers. Though the 49ers don't believe he's dealing with a major injury, Bosa could still be at risk of missing at least one game. Bosa's participation in practice Thursday and Friday -- or lack thereof -- should provide further clarity regarding his availability for this weekend's game.

  • Dealing with strained groin

    San Francisco 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.

    Analysis: 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 could lead to increased opportunities for Charles Omenihu and Drake Jackson while pass rushing opposite fellow defensive end…read more

  • Forced out Sunday

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

    Analysis: 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.

  • Pair of sacks in Week 4

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

    Analysis: Bosa's two sacks on quarterback Matthew Stafford on Monday night now give 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.

  • Four sacks through three games

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

    Analysis: 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.

  • Two sacks, five QB hits in win

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

    Analysis: Bosa wreaked 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.

  • Gets sack in season opener

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

    Analysis: 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.

  • Officially participates Tuesday

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

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

  • Present at team facility

    Bosa was present at the 49ers' facilities Monday, making it very likely he will attend minicamp Tuesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: 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 as other stars have done in the past. Bosa was dominant in 2021, registering 52 tackles including 15.5 sacks while forcing four fumbles and defending one pass over 17 contests.

  • Should be at minicamp

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

    Analysis: 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 in his fourth season in the league.

  • Fifth-year option exercised

    The 49ers exercised Bosa's fifth-year, $17.9 million option for 2023 on Monday, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: 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 reports.

  • Nabs 1.5 sacks in NFCCG loss

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

    Analysis: 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.

  • Cleared for Saturday

    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.

    Analysis: 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.

  • Status in question for Saturday

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

    Analysis: 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.

  • Back on practice field

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

    Analysis: During the portion of the session open to the media, Bosa was spotted carrying his helmet before heading to the locker room, according to Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News. The limited workout 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.

  • No practice Tuesday

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

    Analysis: Late in the first half of Sunday's wild-card matchup with the Cowboys, Bosa slammed helmet-first into the knee of teammate D.J. Jones and eventually was ruled out due to a concussion. On Monday, coach Kyle Shanahan relayed that the 49ers were "optimistic" about Bosa's chances of gaining clearance 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.

  • Diagnosed with concussion

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

    Analysis: 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.

  • Dominant in third year

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

    Analysis: 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 helped 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…read more

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

    Analysis: 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.

  • Another two-sack performance

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

    Analysis: 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.

  • Records fourth sack of season

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

    Analysis: 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.

    Analysis: 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.

  • Wreaks havoc in return to action

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

    Analysis: 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.

    Analysis: With a Week 1 return expected, Bosa handled 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.

  • Ready for team reps

    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.

    Analysis: 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.

  • Nearing full clearance

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

    Analysis: 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.

  • Practicing in pads

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

    Analysis: 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.

  • Week 1 return expected

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

    Analysis: 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.

  • On track for camp

    Head coach Kyle Shanahan said Tuesday that he expects Bosa (knee) to be ready for training camp, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: 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 of 2020.

  • To have surgery this week

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

    Analysis: 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.

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

    Analysis: Bosa tore the ACL in his left knee during the 49ers' Week 2 win over the Jets and will miss the remainder of the 2020 season as a result. With the 2019 No. 2 overall pick sidelined, the likes of Kerry Hyder, Dee Ford (back) and newcomer Ezekiel Ansah are options to help fill the resulting void at defensive end opposite Arik Armstead.

  • Diagnosed with torn ACL

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

    Analysis: 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 tear. Now, the results of an MRI have confirmed 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, some combination of Kerry Hyder, Dee Ford (back) and recent signee Ezekiel Ansah will get pass-rushing snaps…read more

  • Expected for Week 1

    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.

    Analysis: Bosa has been sidelined with the muscle strain for the past week and underwent an MRI to confirm there was no significant damage.

  • 'Week-to-week' with muscle strain

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

    Analysis: 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.

  • Misses consecutive practices

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

    Analysis: 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, we could have a better idea of what he's dealing with.

  • Takes home hardware on SB eve

    Bosa won AP Defensive Rookie of the Year honors Saturday.

    Analysis: 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.

  • Shows up big vs. Vikings

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

    Analysis: 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.

  • Stellar rookie campaign

    Bosa finished the regular season with 47 tackles (32 solo), nine sacks, a forced fumble and an interception in 16 games.

    Analysis: The second-overall pick put the league on notice when he racked up a whopping seven sacks over his first seven contests. Bosa did slow down in that department in the second half of the season, but the loss of fellow edge rusher Dee Ford was a significant factor as opposing defenses began to double Bosa often. The talented lineman still finished with 80 total pressures, which was 14 more than any other rookie in NFL history, according to Cam Mellor of Pro Football Focus. If the 49ers are able to…read more

    Analysis: Bosa and the rest of the stout defensive line were held in check for much of the game, and he moved his season tackle total to 38 (26 solo). He may be hitting a little rut late in the season, as Bosa has secured just one sack in his six contests.
