Summary
Fred Warner said 49ers players are aware of owner Jed York’s arrest and no contest plea, but the matter is not being discussed inside the locker room.
Week 1 preparation is driving that silence, Warner said, with players focused on making the roster and improving rather than on York’s personal situation.
Kyle Shanahan has taken the same line, saying York’s arrest has had no effect on the team as San Francisco tries to keep an unusual owner scandal outside football operations.
