Breaking: Nick Bosa and 49ers Agree To Mega Extension

The San Francisco 49ers have agreed to a 5-year, $170 million deal with Nick Bosa, Adam Schefter reported Wednesday. The contract also includes $122.5 million in guaranteed money, trumping his older brother Joey Bosa, who has the second highest amount at $102 million, per Spotrac.

His massive contract also includes a $50 million signing bonus, Tom Pelissero reported. Another record for a defensive player.

The deal has Bosa’s salary at $34 million, making him the highest-paid defensive player in NFL history, surpassing Aaron Donald’s $31.67 million. He truly earned it.

Bosa is coming off a dominant season in which he posted 18.5 sacks, 19 tackles for loss, 48 QB hits, and 2 forced fumbles. He won NFL Defensive Player of the Year and made First Team All-Pro.

The star defensive end had been holding out for several weeks and missed almost all of training camp as he awaited a new deal. The current NFL Collective Bargaining Agreement calls for Bosa to be fined $40,000 for every day of training camp that he misses. His holdout came at a cost, but he got his deal.

Back in June, before training camp began, Bosa downplayed his contract situation.

It’s pretty high. I think I am pretty confident about that. I think I’ll get what I deserve,” Bosa told reporters back in in June about his confidence level that a new deal would get done soon. He did indeed.

This news comes as a reminder that Chiefs defensive tackle Chris Jones has still not received a contract. With Bosa resetting the market, it might be even more difficult for both sides to reach an agreement.

Nick Bosa will certainly be playing at a high level for the next five years, and the 49ers are hopeful that they can reach multiple Super Bowls within that time frame.

What do you think of the deal? Let us know in the comments!
