Nick Bosa takes part in Wednesday's practice

Published September 2, 2026 02:40 PM A report on Wednesday morning brought good news about 49ers defensive end Nick Bosa’s outlook for playing in Week 1 and the afternoon brought more good news. Video from the team’s final practice before they head to Australia to continue preparing for their September 10 game against the Rams shows Bosa on the field with the team. The report earlier in the day said that Bosa will travel with the team to Melbourne. Bosa is returning from last season’s torn ACL and missed most of training camp after developing tendinitis during his rehab. General Manager John Lynch said on Tuesday that the time off “got everything to where it was feeling better” and the return to practice is another sign that Bosa is on the right track. Tight end George Kittle is also expected to travel with the 49ers and having both in the lineup would be a welcome development after months of uncertainty about their status.
