Summary

- 49ers coach acknowledges Joey Bosa's potential but cites challenges.
- Joey Bosa's production has declined in recent seasons.
Veteran edge rusher Joey Bosa is one of the prominent players still available on the free agent market. His NFL future is uncertain, with his brother, 49ers defensive end Nick Bosa, expressing doubt about Joey's desire to play an eleventh season.
Nick Bosa indicated that his brother is currently focused on improving his golf game, suggesting a lack of immediate interest in returning to football. While the 49ers, who recorded an NFL-low 20 sacks last season, could benefit from Bosa's presence, coach Kyle Shanahan acknowledged that while adding him would be 'awesome,' it's 'not always possible.'
Joey Bosa, who will turn 31 in July, has not achieved double-digit sacks since 2021. His performance has declined, with only 19 sacks recorded across the past four seasons, including five in 2025.
