“The fact that I am able to get up without questioning my security makes me unbelievably proud to be an American and thankful to have brave heroic people like Nicholas watching over me,” Bosa wrote.
Bosa, the younger brother of the Los Angeles Chargers’ Joey Bosa, is expected to be one of the more notable college players in the 2018 season.
