Key Points:

- Bosa, recovering from a torn ACL suffered last season, is confirmed by defensive coordinator Raheem Morris to be playing, though his exact playing time remains uncertain.
- Kittle, who tore his Achilles tendon in January, has been practicing at full speed and looks to be in good shape, with the final decision on his participation pending the team's practice evaluations later in the week.
- Both players have shown significant progress in their rehab and practice sessions, with Kittle recently activated from the physically unable to perform list and participating fully in team drills.
- The 49ers are cautiously optimistic about the contributions of both key players as they prepare for their season opener at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.
