Overview
- Bosa told reporters on Monday that the surgeon who repaired his September 2025 ACL also cleaned up a chronic tendinitis issue in his right quad tendon.
- The 2025 injury ended his season after just three appearances and followed earlier ACL tears in high school and in 2020.
- During rehab Bosa says he feels quicker off the edge and that carrying less leg mass has improved his movement compared with prior returns.
- The 49ers say his 2026 availability and performance will shape their pass rush and influence concrete roster moves because his contract creates large salary-cap charges in 2027–28.
- Bosa is a multi-time Pro Bowler whose return matters both for on-field production and for mentoring younger edge rushers as the team pursues another title window.
