Nick Bosa, along with George Kittle, who both suffered brutal injuries in the 2025 NFL season, are both cleared and set to play for the 2026 NFL season opener against the almost Super Bowl-reaching team, the Los Angeles Rams. Since Week 4 of the 2025 NFL season, Nick Bosa has not touched the gridiron. 10, and Friday, Sept. 11, for Australians watching the game! Bosa tore his ACL in his right knee in Week 3 of the 2025 NFL season. He recorded just 17 combined tackles, 2.0 sacks, and two forced fumbles in three games.
But now that the game is hours away, the designation was coming, and it’s come! But he is set to make his long-awaited return against the Rams in Melbourne, Australia, on Thursday, Sept.
August 18: The 28-year-old edge was considered week-to-week, and the coach said he was doing well. September 1: Worked off to the side in Monday’s practice, expected the same on Tuesday, with a full return on Wednesday. September 2: Made the trip to travel with the team to Australia.

They are technically in the future, their head coach Kyle Shanahan said. The San Francisco 49ers have been in Australia way ahead of their time, coming from California. This leaves little room to know what their game status will look like. The coach used time zones as an excuse not to reveal the injured players’ designations and conditions. He did not practice in the preseason game or at joint practices. Whatever you want to say, he’s going. He’ll be there. We’re not hiding that.”
