  • 49ers sign Vita Vea's cousin | Jed York's next move...

    This was one of the most unpredictable days in recent San Francisco 49ers history. We break down the news surrounding Jed York's arrest, his no-contest plea to misdemeanor charges, and what the fallout could mean for the organization. We also revisit the precedent set by former 49ers owner Eddie DeBartolo Jr. and how the NFL has handled controversies involving team owners in the past.

    On the football side, the 49ers have added defensive end Viliami Fehoko, a second cousin of Vita Vea, while continuing to search for linebacker depth with workouts for Antonio Grier and Devin Harper. We also cover the latest on Nick Bosa's return to practice, potential roster moves, offensive line concerns and the decisions ahead as San Francisco approaches the 53-man roster deadline.
