The wait for Nick Bosa’s contract extension will very likely last into next offseason.
General manager John Lynch on Tuesday in a pre-training camp press conference talked about his star defensive end’s contract extension talks and was mostly mum on details. He did offer an explanation though on why there hasn’t been a lot of buzz about a new deal for Bosa.
“I think the thing I’d tell you there is, if you look at our history, our cadence, you know most of our deals are done with one year left on the contract,” Lynch said. “Nick’s got two years left and so that doesn’t make it impossible, but makes it more likely that it’s something that will be addressed next year. No absolutes, you never say never, but here’s what I do know, as long as we’re here, Nick Bosa is going to be a part of the Niners and he’s going to get paid handsomely to do so. So his time’s coming and when it does, he’ll get what he deserves because man, what a special player.”
