49ers' Nick Bosa Leaves With Right Knee Injury, Ruled Out vs. Cardinals

Initial exams showed no ACL tear, with further imaging planned to determine the severity.

Overview

  • Bosa’s right leg appeared to buckle on a first‑quarter rush, after which he entered the blue tent, briefly tested the knee on the sideline, gave a thumbs‑down gesture, and walked to the locker room.
  • San Francisco first listed him as questionable to return before ruling him out at halftime.
  • Coach Kyle Shanahan said sideline tests did not indicate an ACL tear, but he noted concern based on how Bosa felt and said an MRI is scheduled.
  • The injury lands as the 49ers manage other key absences, and Bosa’s history includes a 2020 ACL/MCL tear in his left knee.
  • Before exiting, Bosa recorded two tackles; he had opened the season with a sack in each of the first two games as the 49ers edged Arizona 16–15.
