Nick Bosa Returns to 49ers Practice as Limited Participant

Bosa returned to the practice field as a limited participant, a step toward a possible return for the San Francisco 49ers. He has been sidelined since September 24, when he strained his calf during practice.

Bosa said he felt “great” and was “ready to go,” and indicated he was not worried about aggravating the injury. The 29-year-old has played in two games this season, recording seven tackles.

His return would add to a run of potential reinforcements for San Francisco. Deebo Samuel, a wideout, trained at the team’s Santa Clara facility the previous day.

Bosa missed most of last season after tearing his ACL in the 49ers’ third game. San Francisco is preparing to host the Las Vegas Raiders, who are 4-4 and coming off a 38-33 road win over the New York Jets.
