The 49ers expect Nick Bosa to play season opener in Australia
San Francisco 49ers star pass rusher Nick Bosa is set to play in the season opener against the Los Angeles Rams in his first game action since a tearing a knee ligament last September. “He’s going out there,” defensive coordinator Raheem Morris told reporters before the team practiced at AAMI Park in Melbourne on Tuesday. The 49ers are counting on a healthy Bosa this season to help spark a pass…
San Francisco 49ers' defensive star Nick Bosa will play in the team's season opener against the Los Angeles Rams, marking his return to action after recovering from a torn ACL sustained in September 2022. Bosa, who has made 74.5 career sacks, began training camp on the active roster but missed most of it due to tendinitis and knee soreness.
Defensive coordinator Raheem Morris confirmed Bosa's participation in the opener on Friday in Australia, emphasizing the team's confidence in his performance. Star tight end George Kittle is also expected to play after recovering from a ruptured Achilles tendon injury, with offensive coordinator Klay Kubiak praising Kittle's swift return and readiness for games.
The only remaining uncertainty for the 49ers is the starting position at left guard, with rookies Carver Willis and second-year player Connor Colby vying for the role. Coach Kubiak declined to disclose who would start, stating that a rotation may occur.
