LOCKED IN TILL 2029: Unexpected Outcome As Steelers Nick Bosa Signs a 4-year Contract with the 49ers for a Huge Deal….
Steelers’ Nick Bosa Signs 4-Year Deal with 49ers for a Huge Contract.
In a stunning turn of events, superstar defensive end Nick Bosa is heading back to the Bay Area, agreeing to a massive four-year contract with the San Francisco 49ers.
The move comes as a shock to NFL fans, given that Bosa had been traded to the Pittsburgh Steelers just a season ago in a blockbuster deal. Now, after a brief stint in the AFC, he is returning to the team that drafted him—this time with a lucrative contract extension that will keep him in San Francisco through the 2029 season.
A Deal No One Saw Coming
Bosa, 27, was expected to be the face of Pittsburgh’s defense for years to come after the Steelers acquired him in a trade last offseason.
However, negotiations between Bosa’s camp and the Steelers reportedly hit an impasse, opening the door for the 49ers to make an aggressive push to bring their former Defensive Player of the Year back home. Sources close to the situation say San Francisco offered Bosa a four-year contract worth an eye-watering $200 million, including $140 million guaranteed—a deal that Pittsburgh was unwilling to match.
“This wasn’t something we were planning,” said 49ers general manager John Lynch. “But when an opportunity like this presents itself, you do everything you can to get a player like Nick back in the building.”
Bosa’s Return to the 49ers
Bosa originally spent five seasons with the 49ers after being selected No. 2 overall in the 2019 NFL Draft. During that time, he became one of the most dominant pass rushers in the league, winning Defensive Player of the Year in 2022 and helping lead San Francisco to multiple deep playoff runs, including a Super Bowl appearance
