Nick Bosa: "My body's fully adapted to football now" after 49ers' TNF win over Giants

The San Francisco 49ers defeated the New York Giants in a Thursday Night Football matchup during Week 3, notching a 30-12 victory in their home opener to improve to 3-0.

San Francisco was dominant in all three areas of the field, consistently leading by two scores due to another strong offensive performance, matched by a defense that held the Giants to just 12 points overall.

Despite the short week, the 49ers earned major contributions from defensive end Nick Bosa, who recorded a sack and six pressures in only 39 snaps due to the Giants' lack of offensive plays.

Bosa's health has been an underrated factor through three weeks, as the defensive end was acclimated heavily in Week 2, playing 63 defensive snaps, which was a significant uptick from Week 1.

How does the 49ers' star defensive end feel through three weeks?

"I think getting through the Thursday for me was big," Bosa said. "Just getting thrown right into football, I was feeling it. But getting through that, being able to finish out Week 3, I think my body's fully adapted to football now, and it's going to be good from here."

Through three weeks, Bosa has 15 pressures and one sack, while accumulating a 28.3% pass-rush win rate and a double-team rate of 37%.

After missing the entire offseason due to the contract dispute with the 49ers, it's a good sign that Bosa is fully acclimated through three weeks and his body is back to game shape.
