NFL free agency is in full swing. Teams have already made plenty of moves immediately after the legal tampering period started.
Furthermore, fans can still expect many more shocking moves in the coming days. There are rumors that the San Francisco 49ers could try to trade for Joey Bosa to pair him up with his brother Nick, and their mom, Cheryl Bosa, is all for it.
The Bosa brothers’ mom, Cheryl, shared a story on her Instagram profile. She shared a post speculating Joey Bosa’s potential signing with the 49ers. Cheryl pleaded with her son to make the move.

Furthermore, she also added another story to her profile claiming the “league should be very scared if this happens.”
Her stories come in the middle of strong rumors that the 49ers could try to rope in Los Angeles Chargers pass rusher Joey Bosa. A move like that could benefit the 49ers’ defensive line and also help Cheryl a lot since she can just support one team instead of two.
Initially, the rumors about a potential trade started after reports suggested that the Chargers were looking to clear some cap space.
Later, rumors started to gain steam after reports broke out about the 49ers potentially releasing their defensive lineman, Arik Armstead, to save their salary cap space. So, as of now, the Joey Bosa to the San Francisco 49ers trade news remains purely speculative.
Since many star Niners defenders are hitting free agency in a few days, the Niners would be looking for more affordable options instead of an expensive player like Joey Bosa. They are already paying Nick Bosa a ton of money and wouldn’t want to put all their money into their defensive line.

The Los Angeles Chargers are currently facing the heat of the salary cap. In an effort to get under the cap, they are looking to trade their star defensive players, Joey Bosa and Khalil Mack, according to reports.
According to The Athletic’s Dianna Russini, many teams have shown interest in both Bosa and Mack. A potential trade could be expected shortly.
The Chargers are open to trade offers for many veteran players including Joey Bosa and Khalil Mack, per sources. There are teams interested but many around the league are willing to wait to see if the Chargers cut them soon.
