Fresh from practice today, Kyle Shanahan updated fans and media alike on the availability of one of his most prized assets.

Defensive stud Nick Bosa has found himself limited to individual work since training camp began in late July. The 23-year-old has been repetitively given a day off after three practices as part of a regimented rehab schedule to ensure Bosa comes back ready to go. The plan moving forward is to slowly ingratiate him into position drills with his d-line brethren.

Both the Niners and Bosa have hinted at the likelihood of a Week 1 appearance, and Shanahan echoed these sentiments in his press conference earlier today.

"That's what we're hoping for," Shanahan said. "If we stay on track, I think we'll see him next week."

Fellow big man Trent Williams is said to be fine despite leaving practice early with a hip/knee complaint. The move is said to be precautionary more than anything.

"We got him out," Shanahan said. "(He) didn't seem overly concerned but we gotta look at him when we get inside."

Meanwhile, former No. 14 overall draft choice, Javon Kinlaw is still recovering from a weeks-old shoulder injury. The sophomore defensive tackle worked with trainers during practice and is “week-to-week” according to Shanahan.

With NFL rosters needed to be officially cut from 90 to 85 by Tuesday (1PM ET), many are fighting for their pro football lives. Undrafted wideout Austin Watkins Jr. incredibly played through a broken foot in the 49ers preseason opener against the Chiefs.

Resultantly, the Alabama at Birmingham product will now be put on Injured Reserve according to the Niners head coach.
