49ers\u2019 Nick Bosa on track for training camp but not rushing recovery: OTA notebook (paywall)<\/a>
\u201cThe San Francisco 49ers defensive end said that after tearing his left ACL in 2020, he tried to push every recovery milestone as hard as he could.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd I probably dealt with some stuff that I didn\u2019t need to deal with in terms of bumps in the road of recovery,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

His current recovery, from a torn right ACL suffered in September, has been more methodical. That\u2019s partly because it\u2019s the second time he\u2019s damaged the right ACL, having done so as a high schooler in Florida. That meant his patellar tendon needed more time to adapt, which was different than his previous two rehabilitations.<\/p>\n

The other factor is that he\u2019s simply older \u2014 he turns 29 in October \u2014 more established in the league and doesn\u2019t feel the same impetus to rush back like he did in 2020.<\/p>\n

Still, Bosa said he\u2019s \u201cpretty far along\u201d in the recovery and is back to moving around on a side field during the 49ers\u2019 organized team activities. He said he plans to return to practice early in training camp and be ready for the team\u2019s Week 1 game in Australia on Sept. 10, which would be 11 days shy of one year since the injury.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll the rest of my body feels pretty darn good,\u201d he said. \u201cMy fingers haven\u2019t felt this good in probably 20 years.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Good and Not So Good from 49ers OTAs: First Impression of Rookies<\/a>
\u201c[Black] Caught four passes during team drills. On one of his catches, he had to extend his arms and catch the ball away from his body, which was impressive. Clearly, he has good hand-eye coordination. He can catch a check-down pass. And he hits the hole hard. It\u2019s unclear how good his vision and route running are at this time, but it\u2019s still early\u2026\u2026\u2026[Cowing was] arguably the most explosive wide receiver on the field today. Cowing caught four passes, including a 40-yard deep pass and two 15-yarders over the middle. He seems much stronger than he did the past two seasons. Look for him to make the team and be the primary returner.\u201d<\/p>\n

49ers\u2019 McCaffrey: Workload managed in practice, not games<\/a>
\u201cThrough the rest of the offseason program and training camp, the Niners plan to be cautious with McCaffrey, who did not practice Thursday but did Wednesday. Their hope is that keeping him fresh will also help him and the running game regain some of the juice they lost last season.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kyle Shanahan discusses the start of 49ers OTAs<\/a>
\u201cI did that last year for the first time, and I think I\u2019ve told you guys about that, or other people have. That was 13 guys and it was all guys who had been here four years or longer. Just to tell them kind of the difference going into this offseason compared to the previous five. I tried to do the same thing, but when I looked up there and tried to pick those guys, there were too many of them now, there were too many guys who had kind of been a part of it. So, I just ended up inviting guys, most of the starters who had been here the last two years. It\u2019s tough. I can\u2019t invite 90 guys over to my house, and I don\u2019t want to invite 50 guys over to my house right now, so I\u2019ve got to have a spot to cut it off so it doesn\u2019t get too much. We just talked about I wanted the guys to be in this offseason and just the group there that was starting, and doesn\u2019t mean they\u2019re guaranteed to start this year, but we\u2019re the group that kind of went through it together last year and just leading us this way.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dre Greenlaw opens up on 49ers return and reunion with Fred Warner<\/a>
\u201cIt gives you a different perspective on how much the building really means, how much the people inside the building mean to you, how much that passion you play for isn\u2019t just for the love of the game, but it\u2019s for the love of the building, as well,\u201d Greenlaw said. \u201cSo, it just gives you a little bit of reality and just, okay, why do you play the game of football?\u201d\u201d<\/p>\n
