San Francisco 49ers star Nick Bosa crashed his teammates鈥 postgame interview on Sunday to show his support for former U.S. president Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential election with a hat emblazoned with Trump鈥檚 slogan: Make America Great Again.

Following the 49ers鈥 30-24 victory over the Dallas Cowboys, 27-year-old Bosa interrupted the postgame interview with Brock Purdy, George Kittle and Isaac Guerendo by jogging between Purdy and NBC鈥檚 Melissa Stark before pointing to the message emblazoned on the front of his hat and then running away.

鈥淎ll right, Nick Bosa with a message there,鈥 Stark said as Bosa jogged off camera.

Speaking to reporters afterward and wearing a different hat, Bosa declined to elaborate on the moment.

鈥淚鈥檓 not going to talk too much about it, but I think that it鈥檚 an important time,鈥 the four-time Pro Bowler when asked about what he did. The presidential election between Trump, a Republican, and Vice President Kamala Harris, a Democrat, is on November 5 鈥 a little more than a week after Sunday night鈥檚 game.

CNN has reached out to the NFL about their policy on players making political statements.

Bosa鈥檚 mom, , appeared to support her son鈥檚 message, reposting a user鈥檚 Instagram Story of the moment with the message, 鈥(Cheryl Bosa) you raised your boy right!! #BOSAFORTRUMP.鈥

Bosa and Trump have long been connected, even before he was drafted by the 49ers with the second overall pick of the 2019 NFL Draft.

During his time at Ohio State, Bosa had previously taken heat for some old political tweets, including tweets supporting Trump and a tweet where he called Colin Kaepernick, a former 49er, a 鈥渃lown.鈥 Bosa apologized for the remark, according to an .

鈥淚 respect what (Kaepernick鈥檚) done,鈥 Bosa said at a news conference after being drafted in 2019. 鈥淚f it empowers anybody, then he鈥檚 doing a good thing. I apologize for that.鈥

Kaepernick started the movement of NFL players kneeling for the 鈥淪tar-Spangled Banner鈥 to protest police brutality and racism. Trump railed against Kaepernick and other protesting players and called on the NFL to take punitive measures against them. Kaepernick later filed suit against the NFL, accusing teams of colluding to keep him from playing, and settled earlier this year,  to his attorney.

Bosa has since deleted the tweets, which ESPN said included the criticism of Kaepernick, as well as Beyonc茅 and the movie 鈥淏lack Panther.鈥 When asked in an  why he deleted the posts, Bosa said, 鈥淚 had to.鈥

鈥淭here is a chance I might end up in San Francisco,鈥 Bosa said.

Upon Bosa being drafted into the NFL, Trump offered his support for the defensive end.

鈥淐ongratulations to Nick Bosa on being picked number two in the NFL Draft. You will be a great player for years to come, maybe one of the best. Big Talent! San Francisco will embrace you but most importantly, always stay true to yourself. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!鈥 Trump .
