On the anniversary of one of the darkest moments in American history, San Francisco 49ers defensive star Nick Bosa pledged a $200,000 donation to honor the victims and heroes of the September 11 attacks.

This year’s event was organized through a partnership with local charities and service organizations, bringing together thousands of volunteers at Levi’s Stadium. Together, they worked on initiatives to provide meals and essential support to families in need.

Bosa’s donation will be used for two main purposes:

  • $100,000 for packing and distributing free meals for the community through large-scale initiatives.

  • $100,000 for supporting vulnerable communities, disaster victims, and struggling families through ongoing service projects nationwide.

  • Bosa, who has made giving back an important part of his NFL journey, stressed that his contribution is not only a tribute to those who lost their lives in the 2001 attacks but also a way to carry forward their legacy of courage and unity.

    “September 11th is a day America will never forget — not just because of the loss, but because of the way people came together afterward. San Francisco has shown me so much, and this is my way of giving back — to make sure no family is left behind and to honor those whose sacrifice still inspires us today,” Bosa said.

    The timing of this donation adds even greater significance. On the very same day, Nick Bosa also contributed $200,000 to the Iryna Zarutska Honor Fund, joining a global wave of tributes for the Ukrainian woman whose tragic death drew international attention. These back-to-back acts of generosity highlight a player committed not only to excellence on the field but also to humanitarian efforts off it.

    The gesture aligns with the NFL’s broader 9/11 commemorations, which include league-wide moments of silence and community service events across the country.

    For 49ers fans, Bosa’s action is yet another reminder that in San Francisco, football is more than just a game — it is a commitment to resilience, compassion, and unity.

    Bears Could Get Huge Boost to Pass Rush for ‘MNF’ vs. Commanders
    Bears defensive end Austin Booker could return in Week 6. The Chicago Bears could receive a significant boost to their pass rush when they take on the Washington Commanders for Monday Night Football in Week 6. The Bears are now eligible to designate second-year defensive end Austin Booker for return from the injured reserve list after he missed the first four games of the season. Booker had shone in the preseason and seemed the likely choice to serve as the Bears‘ top rotational pass rusher behind veterans Montez Sweat and Dayo Odeyingbo coming into the 2025 season, but he suffered a knee injury in August that forced the team to place him on the short-term injured reserve list after the 53-man roster cutdown.

You Do It?   Brain Journal While the Bears have not laid out an expected return timeline for Booker, they will have the option of designating him for return to practice in Week 6 if they feel he has made enough progress in his injury recovery. Once the Bears designate him for return, they will have 21 days to activate him to the roster or else must leave him on IR for the year. The Bears could provide clues to Booker’s status when they hold their first practice of the week on Wednesday and issue their first injury report for Sunday’s prime-time date with the Commanders. They would need to activate Booker by Saturday afternoon at the latest for him to have a chance of suiting up for them on Monday Night Football. The Bears (2-2) will take on the Commanders (3-2) at 8:15 p.m. ET next Monday.
