As the mother of NFL stars playing on different teams, Cheryl Bosa has had to make plenty of tough calls when it comes to her gameday plans. But, perhaps none have been quite as difficult as the bittersweet scenario facing the Bosa family this weekend.
The NFL playoffs begin on Saturday with a pair of wild-card round matchups, starting with Nick Bosa’s 49ers taking on the Seahawks in Santa Clara at 4:30 p.m. ET followed by Joey Bosa’s Chargers facing the Jaguars in Jacksonville at 8:15 p.m. ET. For Joey, 27, the contest will be just the third postseason appearance of his career while his younger brother Nick, 25, will be competing in his seventh playoff game.
While the joy of watching her sons in the playoffs will obviously take precedent, the locations and times of the games presented Cheryl with the tough task of deciding which son she’d support come Saturday. And, as she explained on the latest episode of the Your Mom podcast, the choice eventually boiled to one thing.
