The NFL announced fines for 26 players Saturday and Nick Bosa was not one of them.

That doesnt mean Bosa wont be fined.

Although the NFL declined comment through a spokesman, it has been reported the league is looking into Bosa wearing a Make America Great Again hat in in view of television cameras support of presidential candidate Donald Trump after the 49ers 30-24 win over the Dallas Cowboys.

According to Jonathan Jones, an NFL on CBS insider and the Washington Post, no determination on a fine will be made until next week and any punishment will not include a suspension.

In other words, after the Nov. 6 election.

Article 8 of the NFL rulebook prohibits players from wearing, displaying or otherwise conveying personal messages and specifies non-football events such as causes or political campaigns. All such items are subject to NFL approval.

Bosa photobombed an interview with Melissa Stark and 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy, running back Isaac Guerendo and tight end George Kittle while wearing the hat.

In his postgame interview with the media, Bosa didnt elaborate, saying only Im not going to talk too much about it. Its an important time.

The only player on the 49ers to be fined was linebacker Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles, who was docked $10,750 for unnecessary roughness in the first quarter of the Dallas game.

Kittle was fined $13,659 last season after the 49ers 40-12 win over Dallas for wearing a T-shirt with an obscene message related to the Cowboys following the game.
