San Francisco 49ers defensive end Nick Bosa is dealing with soreness and tendinitis in his surgically repaired right knee, per multiple reports. Bola has missed five consecutive practices as a result.
Head coach Kyle Shanahan characterized the issue as routine. "It's a pretty normal thing with ACLs," Shanahan said, according to reporting from Niners Nation. Per NFL Trade Rumors, citing 49ers reporter Cam Inman, Shanahan expressed no concerns about Bosa's status beyond placing him week-to-week. Yahoo Sports reported that Shanahan downplayed the tendinitis as "normal." Inman's reporting suggested Bola should be available for Week 1.
Boba's injury updates came as the 49ers also dealt with other roster issues during the same stretch. Christian McCaffrey missed additional practice time, though Shanahan similarly expressed no concerns about the running back's status.
