Jersey sales for San Francisco 49ers star defensive end Nick Bosa have reportedly skyrocketed over the past 48 hours, following his endorsement of Donald Trump on live television.

After the 49ers defeated the Dallas Cowboys on “Sunday Night Football,” NBC’s Melissa Stark spoke with George Kittle, Brock Purdy and Isaac Guerendo. While she was speaking with Purdy, Nick Bosa crashed the interview and showed off a “Make America Great Again” hat before making a quick exit.

A vocal supporter of Trump, Bosa received mixed responses for his political endorsement on live TV. As noted by Alex Simon of SFGate, the NFL may punish Bosa for violating its rules about wearing an item with a personal message.

However, Nick Bosa’s endorsement of the former president has reportedly been a success from a business standpoint. According to the ML Football X/Twitter account, Bosa jersey sales have skyrocketed since Sunday night:

If you go to NFL Shop, you’ll see that Bosa’s jersey is listed among the “most popular.” Of course, it also helps being a franchise star player of a prominent NFL franchise like the 49ers.

Trump is running against Vice President Kamala Harris, who secured the Democratic nomination after Joe Biden announced that he wouldn’t seek re-election. If Trump wins, he’ll become the second president to serve two non-consecutive terms, joining Grover Cleveland.

Nick Bosa & 49ers Picked Up Pivotal Win vs. Cowboys

A loss to the Dallas Cowboys would have dropped Bosa’s 49ers to 3-5 on the season heading into their bye week. But Sunday’s crucial 30-24 win moved them back to .500 and in a three-way tie for tops in the NFC West with the Seattle Seahawks and Arizona Cardinals.

The 49ers now get a much-needed bye week to rest up, with Christian McCaffrey hopefully ready to debut in Week 10 when they visit the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Raymond James Stadium.
