San Francisco 49ers edge rusher Nick Bosa still isn’t a member of the team, technically.
The reason is Bosa has yet to sign his rookie contract. In fact, both the Niners’ top two picks from the 2019 NFL Draft — Bosa and wide receiver Deebo Samuel — have yet to sign their deals. Interestingly enough, both Bosa and Samuel are represented by Creative Artists Agency.
Unlike previous seasons, drafted rookies are currently subject to relatively standardized four-year contracts under the current collective bargaining agreement. The contract values are essentially set in place with the total amounts determined by where a prospect is drafted.
