Nick Bosa sighting! Pass rusher rejoins 49ers but isn’t practicing

Nick Bosa arrived in the Bay Area last night. It was obviously too late for the San Francisco 49ers' Wednesday practice, but the team still had two practices left before heading to Pittsburgh to face the Steelers in the season opener.

Bosa is not practicing with his teammates today, though. As practice started, the defensive end was working in the weight room, per multiple reports, and the plan is to get him some work on the side.

Multiple reporters shared videos of the first glimpses of Bosa.

San Francisco will hold one more practice, a lighter Friday session, before traveling across the country.

Bosa missed all of training camp and the preseason, holding out for a new contract. That happened yesterday as the two sides agreed to a record-setting five-year, $170 million extension.

How much will Bosa play on Sunday against the Steelers? That depends on these next two days. Kyle Shanahan and his coaching staff will use them to evaluate Bosa's game-action readiness.

Is there any chance Bosa does not play this weekend?

"He'd have to have a beer belly and be out of shape or something, which that's not in Bosa's DNA," Shanahan responded.

Bosa is back with his team, and the 49ers are happy there is no beer belly in sight.
