Plays through injury in down year Bosa finished with 52 tackles (33 solo), 9.0 sacks, one interception and one fumble forced across 14 starts in 2024.

Impact Bosa didn't live up to the lofty expectations set in previous seasons despite providing well-rounded statistics. The 2022 DPOY didn't sniff that honor this year after dealing with an oblique injury that cost him three games of action. Bosa didn't get rolling again until Week 17 when he produced a pair of sacks against Detroit. With the 49ers missing the playoffs, the elite edge rusher will have a full offseason to return to full strength before running things back in 2025.

Past knee injury Bosa (knee) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Cardinals, Bo Brack of GoPHNX.com reports.

Impact Bosa appears to have recovered from his knee injury in time to suit up Sunday, as he began the 49ers' week of practice with consecutive DNPs before upgrading to a full session Friday. The All-Pro defensive end has appeared in 13 games this season, recording 52 total tackles, including 9.0 sacks, one interception and one forced fumble. With Bosa back at full health, he's expected to wreak havoc on the Cardinals' offensive line and cause problems for Kyler Murray in Week 18.

Logs DNP on Wednesday Bosa (knee) did not practice Wednesday.

Impact Bosa had previously been dealing with oblique and hip issues in recent weeks, so the knee injury appears to be a new one for the star edge rusher. With San Francisco eliminated from playoff contention and Brock Purdy (elbow) already out for Week 18, it wouldn't at all be shocking to see Bosa not play in Sunday's season finale against Arizona.
