Nick Bosa Inks Record-Breaking Extension With 49ers

2 years ago

The San Francisco 49ers and pass-rusher Nick Bosa agreed to a five-year, $170 million contract extension on Wednesday, according to a source. The deal includes $122.5 million guaranteed, which will make him the highest-paid defensive player in the history of the NFL. Bosa is deserving of the massive contract extension as one of the best pass-rushers in the league. The 25-year-old defensive end led the league in 2022 with 18.5 sacks and also recorded 51 tackles (41 solo), 19 tackles for loss, 48 QB hits and two forced fumbles in 16 regular season starts. He is a must-start defensive lineman in all IDP fantasy leagues, and his presence on the D-line in San Fran will give the Niners defense/special teams unit way more upside in Week 1 against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
