The outlook for the 2020 San Francisco 49ers changed dramatically when second-year defensive end
Nick Bosa went down with a torn ACL during Week 2 against the New York Jets. That's how good Bosa is. He is a game-changer on the edge of the once-formidable Niners defensive line that has also lost
Solomon Thomas for the year to a torn ACL, and veteran
Dee Ford is out indefinitely with a back injury.
Joey Bosa of the Los Angeles Chargers told reporters on Wednesday that his younger brother, Nick, is staying with him and his parents during his rehab.
"It's nice having them around," Joey Bosa said. "They're keeping the place [tidy] for me and food constantly running. I can't complain."
The two play for different teams but train together during the offseason. They stayed and worked out together in Florida this offseason as players were prohibited from utilizing team facilities due to COVID-19.
"Obviously, it's been a little tough with what's going on in the world, but we have a pretty good setup down here (in Fort Lauderdale, Florida) that we're still able to get our work in,"
Nick Bosa said in May.
The brothers fantasize about one day playing alongside one another.
"Yeah, we spent every waking hour together the past six months, so obviously we have conversations like that," Nick Bosa told
NBC Sports Bay Area in August.
Joey, however, signed a five-year extension in August, and its unlikely the 49ers let Nick go anytime soon.
Nick Bosa, the former No. 2 overall draft pick, was coming off a phenomenal rookie season that included 47 tackles, nine sacks, 25 quarterback hits, an interception, two passes defensed, and NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year honors. He had six tackles, and a quarterback hit this season before his injury.
Cornerback Jamar Taylor was carted off the field and to the SoFi Stadium locker room late in the first half of the San Francisco 49ers' 23-20 win over the Los Angeles Rams. He was immediately ruled out.
Head coach Kyle Shanahan told reporters after the game that the team fears the defensive back suffered a torn ACL. Taylor was replaced by Emmanuel Moseley for the remainder of the game.
Cornerback Ken Webster was also carted off the field following an injury and did not return. Shanahan said he suffered a hamstring
The San Francisco 49ers will add another name to their injured reserve list. The team was concerned that cornerback Jamar Taylor suffered a season-ending torn ACL on Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams, and those fears were confirmed on Monday.
According to Matt Barrows of The Athletic, an MRI on Monday revealed that the defensive back indeed suffered a torn ACL, ending his season.
An MRI today revealed that CB Jamar Taylor tore his ACL on Sunday, as Kyle Shanahan feared after the game.

How difficult has this week been just in terms of trying to get prepared when you're so short handed in practice?
"I haven't really been thinking about it too much. Yeah, the week, I know we had some guys out, maybe had to switch some practice schedule around as far as a walk-through and how much live reps we get and things like that, but it hasn't been too bad. And then had the virtual meetings. So, our circumstance is different a little bit, but the same information is
