Nick Bosa Donates $1M Salary to San Francisco Homeless Fund After Season-Ending Injury
San Francisco, CA – September 24, 2025
Nick Bosa’s season-ending knee injury left the San Francisco 49ers without their most dominant defensive star, but it hasn’t stopped him from making an impact off the field. Instead, the All-Pro pass rusher is turning heartbreak into hope.
Just days after doctors confirmed he would undergo surgery and miss the rest of the 2025 season, Bosa announced he will donate his $1 million base salary to the San Francisco Homeless Outreach Fund, a city-backed program that supports emergency housing, youth shelters, and meal programs.
The fund, managed in partnership with the San Francisco Human Services Agency and several nonprofit organizations, will direct Bosa’s contribution toward expanding shelter capacity this winter and providing daily hot meals for children in transitional housing.
Bosa explained his motivation with humility. “This city has given me everything. If I can’t play for the Faithful, I can still stand for this community. Every child deserves a warm meal and a safe place to sleep. San Francisco is my family.”
Mayor London Breed praised the gesture, calling it “a powerful reminder that our athletes are part of this city’s fabric. Nick’s generosity will directly impact families who need it most.”

Fans responded with an outpouring of gratitude. Social media lit up with the hashtag #BosaStrong, with one fan writing: “Nick just proved he’s not only a defensive anchor, but a heart anchor for San Francisco.”
For Bosa, the act is as much personal as it is public. “I’ll be away from the field, but giving back gives me strength. Love heals the soul, and I’ll carry that spirit through every step of my rehab,”
While the 49ers now face the challenge of replacing their leader on defense, Bosa has already delivered a victory of a different kind — one rooted in compassion, community, and the belief that even in pain, you can give hope.
BREAKING: Eagles Star Restructures Contract to Save $7 Million Cap Space
Philadelphia, PA – September 7, 2025
The Philadelphia Eagles have executed a strategic contract adjustment with one of their most trusted protectors, ensuring both financial flexibility and continued stability along the offensive front. By restructuring the deal of their franchise left tackle, the team has created valuable salary cap room heading into a pivotal year.
Balancing roster costs has become increasingly complex after an offseason of difficult decisions, but Philadelphia chose a move that secures one of its most important building blocks while also keeping the door open for roster upgrades elsewhere.
That player is Jordan Mailata, the 6-foot-8 lineman who has transformed from a rugby project into one of the NFL’s premier tackles. His 2025 cap hit stood at $15.4 million, including $10.2 million in base salary. By converting nearly $9 million of that figure into a signing bonus and spreading it across the final years of his extension, the Eagles free up close to
The adjustment does come with future implications, potentially raising the dead cap figure for 2026, but the Eagles view the move as a necessary trade-off. Mailata has started 62 games over the past four seasons and is widely regarded as the anchor of the line protecting Jalen Hurts’ blindside.
The newly created space could prove essential. Philadelphia is expected to explore adding defensive depth, with veteran pass rushers and cornerbacks floated as potential targets, as the team prepares for another deep playoff push.
Mailata’s willingness to restructure underscores his leadership within the locker room and his status as a franchise cornerstone. Fan voices on social media have hailed him as “the bodyguard of Hurts”
For the Eagles, the move symbolizes a clear approach: retain stars already in place while maintaining flexibility to pursue complementary talent. For Mailata, it is a reaffirmation of his long-term identity as the foundation of Philadelphia’s offensive line.
As the Eagles prepare to launch their 2025 campaign, they do so with one of the NFL’s most dominant left tackles locked in — and with the financial breathing room to keep building around him.
