The San Francisco 49ers had been having a small issue with their best player.
Nick Bosa had not been to camp all year, and was on the verge of missing time in the regular season when the 49ers decided to cave and give Bosa everything and a little more.
From our friends at Niners Nation:
ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported that the 49ers have agreed to a five-year, $170 million extension with Nick Bosa. The deal includes $122.5 million guaranteed, making Bosa the highest-paid defensive player in history.
Bosa’s $34 million annually eclipses Los Angeles Rams’ star defensive tackle Aaron Donald, which is likely something that Nick was shooting for.
