Nick Bosa, a star player for the San Francisco 49ers, revealed that he was influenced by President-elect Donald Trump while performing his sack celebration dance on Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

In the fourth quarter, on 4th-and-23, Bosa sacked Buccaneers quarterback Mayfield, resulting in a punt and a 23-20 victory for San Francisco.

Fred Warner, a 49ers linebacker, stated that he joined in on Bosa's dance because it appeared to be a "fun thing to do."

Bosa received praise from Trump on Truth Social.

Boston radio host criticizes Bill Belichick after Patriots' victory over Bears: 'He is such a jerk'.

During the past two weeks, Bosa has publicly shown his support for the president-elect by flashing a Make America Great Again hat after the 49ers won against the Dallas Cowboys on a Sunday night game.

He was reportedly fined for the stunt, but he anticipated getting hit in his wallet due to it before the Bucs game last week.

"Well worth it," he said to reporters. "My stance on discussing it won't change, so clearly the country spoke. We received what we received."
