Texas Tech Red Raiders kicker Reese Burkhardt and San Francisco 49ers star Nick Bosa made headlines over the weekend for displaying their support for Donald Trump. Burkhardt revealed a “Trump 24! MAGA” message on his undershirt after scoring a touchdown against TCU, while Bosa sported a Make America Great Again hat following the 49ers’ victory over the Dallas Cowboys.
After Bosa reiterated his message on Instagram, Burkhardt showed his support by sharing Bosa’s post on his own Instagram Stories with the caption “Bang Bang.” While the 49ers have not publicly commented on Bosa’s political display, Burkhardt’s coach addressed the situation, emphasizing the importance of making responsible choices and prioritizing the team’s well-being in the sports setting.
The intertwining of politics and sports has become a recurring theme, with various athletes publicly endorsing different political figures. Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker recently expressed his support for Trump, while Philadelphia Eagles defensive lineman Thomas Booker IV has shown his backing for Vice President Kamala Harris.
