49ers Explore Trade for Edge Rushers After Nick Bosa Injury
The San Francisco 49ers face a significant challenge this season after star edge rusher Nick Bosa suffered a season-ending torn ACL, leaving a crucial gap in their defense. To address this, the team is exploring trade options, with potential targets including edge rushers from the New Orleans Saints—Curtis Granderson, Chase Young, and Cameron Jordan—and Miami Dolphins' Jaelan Phillips, who despite recent injuries, has shown promise and plays significant snaps. Analysts suggest the 49ers should prioritize acquiring Granderson or Phillips, with Phillips being a potential buy-low candidate given his injury history but ability to regain form. The 49ers have been surprisingly successful with a 4-1 record despite injuries, partly thanks to Mac Jones stepping up as quarterback after Brock Purdy's injury. Jones has outperformed expectations with impressive touchdown-to-interception stats, providing stability to the offense. Overall, the 49ers aim to strengthen their edge defense before the trade deadline to maintain their contention status this season.
