NFL fines 49ers’ Nick Bosa for wearing ‘MAGA’ hat
San Francisco 49ers defensive end Nick Bosa was fined $11,255 by the NFL for wearing a “Make America Great Again” hat during a postgame interview last month, a league source told ESPN.
Bosa, after a victory over the Dallas Cowboys on Oct. 27, wore a white hat with “Make America Great Again” in yellow letters when he barged in on a postgame interview involving teammates George Kittle, Brock Purdy and Isaac Guerendo.
According to league rules, players are prohibited from displaying a personal message or non-sponsored branding “at any point throughout a game day when visible at the stadium and TV audience, including postgame interviews in the locker room or on the field.”
On Wednesday, Bosa said he knew a fine was possible but indicated he’d have no problem paying the tab.
“I haven’t got one yet, but if it comes, it comes,” Bosa said. “It was well worth it.”
