San Francisco 49ers pick Nick Bosa with No. 2 overall pick
Published:
Nick Bosa is headed to the West Coast.
With the second pick in 2019 NFL Draft, the San Francisco 49ers selected Bosa. The defensive end was considered to be one of the top three players available in this year’s class and was too good to pass up.
Bosa played in just three games at Ohio State this season, suffering from a core muscle injury in the third game of the season. But by the time the NFL Combine rolled around, the star defensive lineman was able to participate in all drills to show off his skills.
After getting selected No. 2, Bosa was extremely excited and is ready to get ready to work in San Francisco.
“It’s a new journey. I’m so excited. I can’t wait to get to work,” Bosa said after being drafted. “I want to get with my team and kick some butt on the field. I’m ready to get to work.”
In three seasons in Columbus, Bosa totaled 29 tackles for loss and 17.5 sacks. He ended his career with 77 total tackles.
Bosa was the first B1G player to be selected. Oklahoma quarterback Kyler Murray was taken No. 1 overall by the Arizona Cardinals.
