The San Francisco 49ers begin the final stretch of preseason practice ahead of their season opener against the Los Angeles Rams, with Nick Bosa remaining sidelined, according to reports. The team takes the field for the first of three practices before leaving the country.
Head coach Kyle Shanahan says the plan for this week is to have both tight end George Kittle and Bosa participate in team drills as preparations continue for the Sept. 11 opener. The reports describe a practice schedule designed to finalize readiness during the last multi-day window before the game.
While both outlets focus on the same timetable and the status of Bosa, they frame the information around Shanahan’s stated intentions for Kittle and Bosa to be available for team work. The key difference is mainly in emphasis: one outlet highlights the “final stretch” aspect of practice, while the other ties it directly to the three-practice period before travel and the opener date.
