In six seasons, he has recorded 62.5 sacks — third-most in franchise history behind Charles Haley (66.5) and Bryant Young (89.5). Impressive, considering Bosa missed all but two games in 2020 with a torn ACL.
Bosa currently has one first-team All Pro selection and a Defensive Player of the Year Award and 62.5 sacks. Meanwhile, Robert Mathis finished his career with one first-team All Pro selection and 123 sacks and he isn’t in the Hall of Fame yet. Neither is Simeon Rice, who finished his career with 122 sacks, one first-team All Pro selection and a Super Bowl championship.
Which means Bosa probably needs to record another 65-75 sacks just to be in consideration. And that means he needs to stay healthy for another six or seven seasons. And he certainly can achieve those goals, but they’re a long long way off. He’s not even halfway to the promised land yet.
The only players on the 49ers who are future Hall of Famers right now are left tackle Trent Williams, linebacker Fred Warner and tight end George Kittle. Those three are some of the greatest players ever at their respective positions.

The Kansas City Chiefs have bolstered their secondary by signing veteran safety Mike Edwards to a one-year deal. The move comes as the Chiefs aim to strengthen their defensive depth for the upcoming season. Edwards, 27, spent last season with the Chiefs, playing a key role in their Super Bowl-winning campaign. He recorded 51…
Earlier this week, the Chicago Cubs made their second major trade with the Houston Astros, acquiring closer Ryan Pressly after bringing in Kyle Tucker earlier this winter. Pressly is a welcome addition to a Cubs bullpen that had issues in closing games during 2024. Now, Chicago could explore the free-agent market to find another reliable…
As the Chicago Cubs aim to build on a successful season, one key target on their offseason wishlist is Corbin Burnes. Adding the Baltimore Orioles’ ace could enhance an already strong rotation, potentially making it the best in baseball. The Cubs’ 2024 season showcased the strength of their pitching, led by Shota Imanaga and Justin…
