General manager John Lynch acknowledged that fining Nick Bosa $40,000 daily won’t lure him to 49ers training camp and that he remains confident a new contract will be crafted.
“We have to strike the right mix of urgency,” Lynch said. “I don’t like this, I don’t like not having one of our best players here. I also understand it, that we have to exhibit patience and ultimately this thing will work out.
Bosa became a team captain last year, and he responded by leading the NFL with a career-high 18 1/2 sacks. His leadership aspect also gained traction in recent years, including his address to the team on the eve of games. Neither Bosa nor his agent, Brian Ayrault, has publicly commented since camp began last Tuesday, which is when Lynch indicated all parties have chosen to keep details private about their contract talks.
