Overview
- Coach Kyle Shanahan said Tuesday that Bosa is being managed week‑to‑week for tendinitis in his surgically repaired right knee and that the team has no immediate concern about structural damage.
- Bosa has missed multiple consecutive training‑camp practices, with reports noting he was absent for five straight sessions as the club limited him to individual work earlier in camp.
- Team and medical staff described post‑ACL tendinitis as common in recovery, and Bosa has told reporters that his recent surgery 'cleaned up' chronic tendinitis linked to an earlier high‑school ACL injury.
- The 49ers are cautious because Bosa’s presence materially affects their pass rush after a season with a league‑low sack total when he was sidelined, and his contract and roster role add further stakes to any setbacks.
- Media accounts have varied — an early on‑air mention of 'back soreness' was later qualified — so expect the team to control further details and for availability to remain an open question into the regular season.
