Highly-touted rookie Nick Bosa has some work to do if he’s to be ready for the start of the regular season.
According to 49ers general manager John Lynch, the defensive lineman has an ankle sprain that will rule him out for the entire preseason. From that point, he’ll be evaluated for Week 1, and the team will go from there.
#49ers GM John Lynch on @knbr said Nick Bosa sustained an ankle sprain that will knock him out for the exhibition season, at least. “We won’t see in the preseason and we’ll go from there. … We’ll get him right and he’ll be a great player for a long time in this league."

This was the way things had been trending, especially for a player with an injury history like Bosa. Things don’t sound extremely serious, but there’s no harm in being cautious.
