INTRO: Star 49ers defensive end Nick Bosa was fined $11,255 by the NFL for crashing a postgame, on-field interview while wearing a “Make America Great Again” hat on Oct. 27, according to multiple reports.
Bosa donned the hat following San Francisco’s “Sunday Night Football” victory less than two weeks before the 2024 election, showing his support for Donald Trump, who ended up defeating Vice President Kamala Harris to become the country’s President-elect.
Per multiple reports, the hat violated Rule 5, section 4, article 8 of the NFL rulebook, which reads: “Throughout the period on game-day that a player is visible to the stadium and television audience (including in pregame warm-ups, in the bench area, and during postgame interviews in the locker room or on the field), players are prohibited from wearing, displaying, or otherwise conveying personal messages either in writing or illustration, unless such message has been approved in advance by the League office.”
When addressing reporters this week, Bosa acknowledged that he knew a fine from the league could follow, but said that it’d be “well worth it.” (MORE - details)
