NFL Fines Nick Bosa for Political Incident in Interview

The NFL has fined San Francisco 49ers star defensive end Nick Bosa after he interrupted an interview wearing a hat with a message supporting former President Donald Trump. The incident occurred following the team's 2025 preseason practice, when Bosa appeared on the media set interrupting a teammate, sparking immediate backlash from both the press and fans.

According to reports, the league deemed the action violated political neutrality guidelines established for players and staff during official NFL activities. Although the exact amount of the fine was not disclosed, it is a significant fine.

This incident has sparked intense debate: while some fans defended the player's right to express his political opinions, others criticized the lack of professionalism in an environment dedicated solely to sports. The 49ers, for their part, issued a brief statement emphasizing their commitment to league rules and noting that they are “addressing the matter internally.”

Bosa, one of the NFL's most dominant defenders, has yet to make an official public statement regarding the penalty.
