Nick Bosa entered the NFL with great expectations. The younger brother of Los Angeles Chargers’ Joey Bosa, Nick takes after his superstar sibling. The promising youngster penned a four-year contract with San Francisco 49ers in 2019 worth around $33.5 million including a $22.5 million signing bonus.
He registered 32 tackles and nine sacks in the league last season. He was named the AP NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year and also made his debut in the Pro Bowl. Nick’s elder brother became the highest-paid defensive end in NFL history earlier this month. He signed a five-year, $135 million contract extension with the Chargers.
However, former Washington Redskins player Trent Williams hinted that Nick might outplay his elder sibling soon.

“He’s even better than I thought he was and I already thought he was top 3-4 in the game… When it’s all said and done and people ask who’s the best pass rusher in the game, Nick Bosa is probably gonna be the first name to come out of peoples’ mouths,” Williams said.

22-year old Nick Bosa has taken after elder brother Joey Bosa for sure. He’s been in the NFL just one season but has already sacked Aaron Rodgers and Patrick Mahomes. The explosive defensive end will be crucial for Kyle Shanahan’s D-line heading into the 2020 season.
