Fans support different teams for a whole host of reasons. It could be because they live in the city, or because their favorite players feature for the team. At times, it could even be because the fans share a name with the player. This is the case with a 6-year-old New Jersey resident Chase Bosnac who shares the same first name with the NFL 2020 Draft’s 2nd overall pick Chase Young.

That kick-started the 6-year-old’s craze for the then 20-year-old defensive end. Much to his father’s dismay, he supported ‘The Buckeyes.’ “He jumped ship on me,” said Brian Bosnac. 

Chase Bosnac’s mother Ashley, a Pittsburgh Steelers fan said,  “He has season tickets to every game, and he has nobody to go with him. He always thought his son would go but now he’s the biggest Redskins fan.”

The young boy’s decision to back the Redskins means that he hasn’t picked a side at home and alienated the other. As of now, he has a Dwayne Haskins jersey which shows he had absolute faith in the draft.
