Do you honestly believe he was 100% going into the Bucs game?
Bosa legit can't win with some people here.
He plays at less than 100% and ankle is somehow not better for it and he's injury prone.
He doesn't play because the ankle is still not 100% and he's another Bosa who only plays when they're 100%.
Pick a narrative people.
Personally I love that Nick was out there week 1 and it actually makes me feel better than he re-aggravated the ankle EARLY in that game that he finished and finished strong. He was way better in the 2nd half.
It tells me this kid loves football and wants to play and he can play very well. If this was his bad ankle game...imagine how well he plays once he's fully healthy?
If he ends up missing this Bengals game it will suck but hopefully between Nick, training staff/doctors and the coaches we do what's best for the team and Nick long term. No question having Nick out there makes our pass rush WAY better than it is without him but IF the decision was to play him vs Cinci or Pittsburgh I'm saying hold him out til Pittsburgh.
End of the day I hope he's good enough to play Sunday and against Pittsburgh as well and the bye week helps.
