Summary
Raheem Morris said Nick Bosa will play in San Francisco's season opener against the Rams in Melbourne, firming up a status that had remained uncertain through camp.
ESPN reported Bosa was cleared for camp but backed off after feeling something in his knee early, then returned in and out of practice and still planned to play.
Bosa has been a problem for Los Angeles before, going 7-3 against the Rams with 5.0 career sacks entering the opener.
George Kittle also appears on track after his Achilles recovery, with Klay Kubiak saying the tight end is practicing full speed and taking heavy reps.
The injury picture still hangs over both teams, with the Rams expecting Puka Nacua and Myles Garrett to play while Aaron Donald remains the biggest uncertainty.
