Nick BosaAfter the San Francisco 49ers’ Week 8 win over the Dallas Cowboys, his political message wouldn’t go unpunished … because the league just slapped him with a fine.
The four-time Pro Bowler was just fined $11,255 after he wore a white and gold “Make America Great Again” hat on the field following his team’s 30-24 victory over their longtime rivals.
Nick Bosa just crashed the postgame interview wearing his gold and white MAGA hat.
We are so back 🇺🇸

ICYMI… Both interrupted by a post-match interview to his teammates Brock Purdy, George Kittle and: Isaac Gerendo were giving, the hat flashing, and then running to the sideline. It’s a pretty quick moment, but it made a pretty big splash.
It’s worth noting…this fine would also apply to any device with a private message, and it’s not specifically because the hat’s meaning was political.
Deep thoughts about the election

Bosa later revealed she would be fine if the league felt the need to ding him for wearing the cap…saying “If it comes, it comes”.
Since the incident, Bosa hasn’t elaborated on his feelings about politics… although he clearly wanted to. Donald Trump to: win the election – which he did by quite a margin Kamala Harris earlier this week.
We don’t think even the president can pardon the NFL’s fine … so expect Nick to pay up in the coming days.
