Source: NFL fines 49ers' Nick Bosa for wearing 'MAGA' hat
Source: ESPN
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."

(14,079 posts)A team that can't get its players to follow league rules has no leadership.
Screw that. 3 SuperBowl losses, one from Harbaugh and two from Kyle, for a team that NEVER lost a SuperBowl.
And screw the ultra RW owner of the SF Giants.

Talk about embarrassing...
