49ers’ Nick Bosa opens up on NBC postgame ‘MAGA’ hat stunt after Donald Trump presidential victory

Star 49ers pass rusher Nick Bosa has no regrets about flashing a “Make America Great Again” hat on NBC — even if it makes his wallet a little lighter.

After the Niners defeated the Cowboys on “Sunday Night Football” last week, Bosa crashed a postgame interview in which teammates Brock Purdy, George Kittle and Isaac Guerendo were speaking with NBC’s Melissa Stark — and flashed his MAGA hat.

It was later reported that the NFL was considering a fine for Bosa for breaching its rules prohibiting political statements at the stadium on game-days.

After Donald Trump handily defeated Kamala Harris in the presidential election, Bosa spoke to reporters on Wednesday and was asked what his thoughts were on the report that he could be fined for flashing the hat.

“I don’t know, I haven’t gotten one yet, but if it comes it comes,” Bosa said.

Asked if he knew it was possible that he could get fined, Bosa answered, “Yeah. It was well worth it.”

Another reporter asked Bosa why he felt compelled to express himself in that manner.

“Well, I don’t think my position on speaking about it is going to change,” Bosa said.

“Clearly, the nation spoke, and we got what we got.”

Asked about if he watched the coverage of the election Tuesday night, Bosa said, “It was fun. It was a good time. I stayed up.”

Last week, CBS Sports NFL insider Jonathan Jones reported that the NFL was “looking into” the situation with the “MAGA” hat, and that any decision on whether Bosa faced a fine would occur after the election.

The NFL rule book states that players may not “wear, display, or otherwise convey messages, through helmet decals, arm bands, jersey patches, mouthpieces, or other items affixed to game uniforms or equipment, which relate to political activities or causes” while they’re on the clock.
