NFC West Rumors: Bosa, McGlinchey, Hawks


It continues to seem like the 49ers will wait till 2023 to lengthen Nick Bosa. The fourth-year protecting cease grew to become extension-eligible in January, however not like 2019 draft classmate Deebo Samuel, Bosa has a fifth-year choice for 2023. The 49ers would select to wait here, per Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com, and Bosa has no longer pressed the difficulty related to a 2022 extension. This comes after John Lynch stated subsequent yr will possibly be the window for a Bosa deal, no matter the anticipated $24MM windfall the 49ers are anticipated to obtain when they go Jimmy Garoppolo‘s contract off their payroll — through exchange or launch — via Week 1. This will now not be a DeForest Buckner situation, however. Lynch stated this week, Bosa will be a long-term 49er.

 


“What I do know, as lengthy as we’re here, Nick Bosa is going to be a section of the Niners, and he’s going to get paid handsomely to do so,” Lynch said. “His time is coming, and when it does, he’ll get what he deserves due to the fact of man, what a distinct player.”

 


Bosa will be predicted to bridge the hole between Aaron Donald ($31.7MM per year) and the field, with the prospect the NFL has at least two $30MM-AAV defenders via Week 1 2023 searching likely. Here is the contemporary from the NFC West:

 


One of Bosa’s pinnacle exercise opponents will no longer be on the subject for a bit. The 49ers will keep Mike McGlinchey out of exercise for at least this week, Kyle Shanahan stated (via the San Francisco Chronicle’s Eric Branch). McGlinchey, who ignored the 2d half of remaining season due to a torn quad, skilled knee ache after an eight-snap preseason opener and underwent a PRP procedure. The fifth-year proper handle does now not have a timetable for return, making this a must-monitor situation. The 49ers’ offensive line is already set to seem significantly different. Alex Mack retired, Laken Tomlinson signed with the Jets and McGlinchey’s 2021 backup — Tom Compton — is now a Bronco. Colton McKivitz, who spent most of 2021 on San Francisco’s exercise squad, resides as McGlinchey’s cutting-edge understudy.



Drew Lock ignored the Seahawks‘ 2nd preseason sport Thursday and stays away from the team. Pete Carroll stated the QB alternate acquisition is “really sick” with COVID-19, which the group introduced he has gotten smaller Tuesday. After a stable begin (minus a late-game fumble) in Seattle’s preseason opener, Lock is dropping the floor to Geno Smith through lacking time. Smith stays in the lead for the Seahawks’ QB1 post, Eric Williams of Fox Sports writes. This looks like a scenario in which each of the gamers will begin video games for the 2022 Seahawks, however Smith stays in pole function to get the Week 1 call.



After the 49ers reduce Darqueze Dennard, they seem to be set to provide their slot cornerback job to rookie Samuel Womack, Branch notes. The fifth-round pick, who had been seen as in the back of Dennard in this opposition in the past in camp, intercepted two passes in the 49ers’ preseason opener. Charvarius Ward and Emmanuel Moseley are anticipated to be San Francisco’s backyard corners.



The Seahawks traded one of their slot options, Ugo Amadi, to the Eagles for J.J. Arcega-Whiteside. They can also properly name on a rookie to man to put up as well. Coby Bryant is searching like he will play in the nickel role, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times notes. The Seahawks have no longer used presumptive outdoor starters Sidney Jones or Artie Burns in the course of the preseason. Seattle selected Bryant in the fourth spherical and Tariq Woolen in the fifth; the latter labored as an backyard nook in the team’s 2d preseason tilt Thursday.
