49ers' Nick Bosa ranked among top-5 worst NFL contracts for 2026

San Francisco 49ers edge rusher Nick Bosa has been ranked fourth among the top-10 worst contracts heading into the 2026 NFL season, according to Bleacher Report. After signing a five-year, $170 million extension in September 2023, Bosa's performance has declined, raising concerns about his injury history, including a torn ACL in 2025. His previous season totals dropped significantly, including just 2 sacks in 2025 after 10.5 in 2023 and 9 in 2024. The financial implications of his contract complicate any potential move, as releasing him would incur a nearly $50 million dead money hit after 2026.
