Liberal fans of the San Francisco 49ers are upset that the team drafted Trump-supporting Nick Bosa in the NFL draft last month, but two of his new teammates say they don't care about his politics.

Richard Sherman and Jimmy Garoppolo said this week that Bosa, the star defensive end from Ohio State who was picked second overall by San Francisco, will be judged by his performance on the field.

‘One thing about football is that nobody really cares what you say if you can play,’ Sherman told The Sacramento Bee on Monday.

‘At the end of the day, I think a guy that has played with African Americans his whole life, not saying he can’t be racist, but they know how to maneuver around African Americans.”

But Sherman says the tweets won't be an issue.

'It’s not like something where guys are like, "Hey man, what about what you said?"

'No. No. If he can play, he can play. If he can’t play, he won’t be here.

'But at the end of the day, that’s all that matters in football.

'Is he getting sacks on Sunday? Is he helping our team? Is he being a good teammate?

'Those are things that matter.

'Now, if he’s a bad teammate, that’s something we’ll address.'

Garoppolo, the team's starting quarterback, agrees with Sherman.

'Not in the locker room, those type of things aren't even discussed,' Garoppolo told Fox Business Network when asked about Bosa's past tweets.

'Once you get into the facility, it's all about football, it's all about being a good teammate and putting the team first.'
