Nick Bosa interrupted the interview that Melissa Stark, of the NBCwas performing to his teammates, QB Brock Purdy, TE George Kittle and RB Isaac Guerendo. Bosa pointed to the cap, which was difficult to read because it had gold lettering on white material, and then ran away.
According to Maske, Bosa does not face a suspension, but could be fined. Maske adds that no decision is expected before next week, recalling that the elections are next Tuesday, November 5.
In the past, the NFL has faced similar cases and all handled them the same way: behind closed doors. Likewise, they prefer to skip their unwritten rule of sanctioning players before the next game, preferring to wait until after the elections.
The Niners are off this weekend, so that gives them the perfect excuse to delay it. Meanwhile, this has already sparked a whole debate about free speech in the NFL.
