It didn't take much longer for his fellow 49ers teammates to react to the news, either.
And as expected, they are just as hyped as the 49ers Faithful.

Bosa's lengthy holdout officially ended Wednesday after he and the 49ers agreed to a five-year, $170 million contract extension that will make him the highest-paid 49ers player in franchise history.
Coach Kyle Shanahan confirmed the deal to reporters shortly after ESPN's Adam Schefter first broke the news.
"I actually was preparing to talk to you guys about how I have nothing to tell you guys and I was three minutes late because I just got told on the news," Shanahan said. "So obviously pumped up about it and try to hit him up after this and figure it out.
"Not good thoughts. But you know, when you feel it's kind of, you don't, you try not to think about it much because it's not really in my control and you just gotta let the process play itself out once. It kind of went through the weekend. I just kind of got in my mind that we weren't playing with [him]. So because if I would have gone back and forth, I would have been miserable. So I just decided we weren't. I think our team was ready to not. And we are, that was our mindset this way. And, it was a hell of a bonus to just get told that coming in here. So we're obviously we're excited about it."
The 49ers are ready to kick off the 2023 season as they prepare to take on the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday, and they'll have their reigning Defensive Player of the Year on the field with them.
