Nick Bosa expected to get 2 practices in before Steelers game

The 49ers won’t have to wait long to get defensive end Nick Bosa in the building after agreeing to sign him to a five-year contract extension.

ESPN’s Nick Wagoner reported Bosa is traveling to the Bay Area from Florida on Wednesday with an evening arrival time. Then the expectation is for Bosa to practice Thursday and Friday in hopes of preparing to play Sunday.

Head coach Kyle Shanahan on Wednesday before practice held out some hope that Bosa would arrive in Santa Clara in time to participate some in the day’s session.

While he didn’t get a chance to get his first reps of the year Wednesday, he’s on track to get two full practices in to close the week which will have to suffice in Bosa getting ready to play a still unknown role in Sunday’s season opener at Pittsburgh.
