If you're a hip-hop fan, you likely associate "Hot Boys" with the rap group that spawned the careers of Lil' Wayne and Juvenile.

Kwon Alexander wants a modern audience to remember the "Hot Boyzz" as the identity of this 2019 San Francisco 49ers team. Alexander filed trademarks for the phrases "Hot Boyzz" and "Hot Boyzz University," per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network on Tuesday.

"It really just started with the linebackers at first," Alexander said, per Evan Webeck of the Mercury News on Friday.
