Nick Bosa was officially listed as a limited participant in Thursday's practice. After a six-week holdout, the defensive end had just returned to the San Francisco 49ers and had not officially signed his five-year, $170 million contract extension.

The star pass rusher has returned to practice. The 49ers are holding their final session before boarding a plane to the East Coast for this weekend's season opener against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
