Nick Bosa holdout: Which other 49ers stars have skipped training camp practices?

As the 49ers get closer to the start of the 2023 NFL season, the concern over the ongoing holdout of star defensive end Nick Bosa is growing.

Bosa missed the entirety of the 49ers’ training camp and wasn’t in Santa Clara for Wednesday’s practice either, bringing the length of his holdout to 37 days. San Francisco coach Kyle Shanahan has signaled he expected Bosa’s extended absence and both he and general manager John Lynch have expressed optimism that they’ll get things done.

But still, it isn’t done yet, which means Bosa’s absence is starting to get uncomfortable. Sure, plenty of 49ers have skipped offseason workouts before, but most reported to training camp. Bosa didn’t, and now the worst-case scenario of Bosa missing a regular season game — or several — feels possible. If so, he could arguably be the most prominent 49er to ever miss a regular season game because of a contract dispute.

It worked out for the best as the 49ers went 14-2 and repeated as Super Bowl champions for their fourth title of the decade. The future Hall of Famer tallied 10.5 sacks in 1989 and stayed with San Francisco for another two years until a contentious trade to Dallas in 1992.: Rice was already a global superstar by the early 1990s, and was only seven shy of the then-all-time receiving touchdown record before this holdout.
