As the 49ers’ 2024 season wound down, defensive end Nick Bosa tried to find a bright side to missing the playoffs.
Bosa said he was looking forward to having a full offseason after seeing the previous three truncated by the team’s deep postseason runs. They made it to at least the NFC title game each year and Bosa said it was “definitely a grind” to miss out on having more time off.
Quarterback Brock Purdy likely agrees with Bosa’s feelings about a longer offseason. During an appearance on the Built 4 More podcast, Purdy said he thought fatigue played a big role in the 49ers’ drop to 6-11 last season.
