As the 49ers hit the practice field for their third day of practice, they did so without star defensive end Nick Bosa who sat out due to what head coach Kyle Shanahan described as a scheduled rest day. Shanahan told reporters the plan was to have Bosa sit out every third day of practice as the transcendent pass rusher works his way back from an ACL injury that caused him to miss the majority of the 2020 season.
Also absent from practice was Jalen Hurd, who was also given a rest day as he completes his comeback from an ACL injury he suffered during training camp last year.
