Overview
- General manager John Lynch said Tuesday that Bosa has been doing side work and wants to get back on the field for Wednesday’s final practice before the team departs for Australia.
- Bosa missed most of training camp and all of the preseason after developing tendinitis in a surgically repaired knee following an ACL tear last September.
- The 49ers are taking a cautious, week‑to‑week approach and will judge further availability based on how Bosa responds to live reps in Wednesday’s session.
- Coaches view Bosa’s return as important because San Francisco recorded an NFL‑low 20 sacks last season and his presence would materially boost the pass rush.
- If Wednesday’s practice shows no setback the team will decide quickly on travel and Week 1 clearance, with the long flight to Australia and limited medical windows adding urgency to that judgment.
