49ers’ Nick Bosa Slammed For Crashing Teammates’ Post-Game Interview w/ MAGA Hat
Nick Bosa, defensive end for the San Francisco 49ers, is making headlines for his actions following his team’s win over the Dallas Cowboys. In case you missed it, after Sunday night’s game (Oct. 27), some 49ers players were pulled to the side to conduct a post-game interview. As the men talked with NBC’s Melissa Stark, Bosa ran into the camera frame, interrupting the interview to show off his white MAGA hat. He then jogged away as Stark said,
“All right, Nick Bosa with a message there.”

However, despite taking a political stance on TV, Bosa opted not to stand ten toes down when asked about the questionable moment by press later on. Instead, he said,
“I’m not going to talk too much about it, but I think that it’s an important time.”
As you can imagine, many weren’t here for what Bosa did, with critics pointing out a possible double standard within the NFL. One person wrote on X,
“Let me get this straight. Colin Kaepnernick [sic] took a team to the Super Bowl, then took a knee in silence, got blackballed, never to play again. Nick Bosa’s out on national TV flashing the 21st century equivalent of the swastika armband and the @NFL will do ????”
Colin Kaepernick was seemingly blackballed from the league for taking a knee during the “Star-Spangled Banner” to protest police brutality and racism.
No word yet on whether Bosa will have penalties for his MAGA hat-flashing moment.
