Here’s What the #49ers Officially Had to Say About #MAGA Nick Bosa’s Tweets

The 49ers #2 overall draft pick Nick Bosa has recently been in the news for the wrong reasons. On the field he was an excellent prospect at Ohio State and got himself to the top of the draft board via his physical relentless play, but off the field his play in these twitter fields went a bit too far.

Bosa was caught liking tweets and instagram posts that were homophobic, racist, and outright disgusting. He also recorded a video of himself praising Donald Trump and proclaimed him and Ronald Regan as “GOATS” via his twitter page. Take that for what you will.

Here is what the 49ers responded with when asked about the disgusting things Bosa was involved with online:

Team President Al Guido told Bloomberg that Bosa was asked about his praise for Donald Trump and scorn for Colin Kaepernick on Twitter, but the team didn’t consider the issue in deciding to draft Bosa.

“Not at all,” Guido said, via the San Francisco Chronicle. “It doesn’t mean we didn’t do background on the kid, doesn’t mean we didn’t bring it up and ask him the question, but look — if we’re going to get in a world where we’re not drafting Republicans or not drafting Democrats. . . . The way that I think about it is, ‘he’s a young kid, he had a perspective.’ That perspective is fine, some of other stuff he did I think was a little insensitive and needs to learn from.”
