Bosa and second-round pick Deebo Samuel were the last of the 49ers rookies to remain unsigned. Samuel signed his contract Thursday as well.

The Ohio State product's contract will count for $6.1 million in 2019, $7.625 million in 2020, $9.15 million in 2021, and $10.675 million in 2022. The 49ers will also have an option to pick up a fifth year of the contract in 2023.

Bosa has not played in a game since Sept. 15, 2017, when he sustained a bilateral core muscle injury in a game against Texas Christian and underwent season-ending surgery. In his 29-game college career at Ohio State, Bosa recorded 47 tackles and 17.5 sacks.
