Ohio State Football: Nick Bosa named Rookie of the Year

Things just keep getting better for San Francisco 49ers defensive end Nick Bosa. After being selected No. 2 overall in the NFL Draft last spring out of Ohio State, the former Buckeye and his team battled its way through the NFC playoffs and into Super Bowl LIV.

And on Thursday, Bosa was announced as the 2019 Pepsi NFL Rookie of the Year. He had a tremendous season for the 49ers as he started 14 games and recorded 47 tackles, nine sacks, one forced fumble and one interception. A very good start to a hopefully long and productive NFL career.
