49ers owner Jed York pleads no contest to disorderly conduct charges after Ohio arrest

San Francisco 49ers principal owner Jed York entered a not-guilty plea to charges of disorderly conduct and possessing criminal tools after being arrested at a trailer park in Ohio on Sunday. Court records show York pleaded no contest to the two misdemeanor offenses.

The NFL said the league is aware of the incident and will evaluate it under its personal-conduct policy, which covers illegal, violent, dangerous or irresponsible behavior that could harm the league’s reputation. > "The league is aware of the matter which will be reviewed under the personal conduct policy," NFL spokesperson Brian McCarthy said in an email.

The 49ers issued a brief statement indicating that, because the arrest has been resolved as a legal matter, they will not provide further comment at this time.

York, who became the team's principal owner in 2024 after acquiring additional shares from his mother, has overseen the franchise’s recent Super Bowl appearances and the construction of Levi’s Stadium. The York family, which holds a majority stake in the team, is valued at billions of dollars, and the 49ers rank among the most valuable NFL franchises.
