San Francisco 49ers owner Jed York was arrested over the weekend in East Palestine, Ohio, and pleaded no contest Monday to misdemeanor charges of disorderly conduct and possessing criminal tools.
York was released after posting a $5,000 bond. He received a one-day jail sentence for each charge, to be served concurrently, with credit for the day he had already spent in custody. He was also fined $1,150.
Court records show York initially faced a charge of engaging in prostitution before prosecutors amended it to disorderly conduct. As part of the plea agreement, a cellphone seized during the arrest was returned to York, while $160 that had been taken was designated for the Mahoning Valley Human Trafficking Task Force. York also completed an online course.
The 49ers and NFL had not immediately commented.
York, 46, assumed day-to-day control of the 49ers from his parents in 2008 and became the team's principal owner in 2024. The franchise has emerged as a consistent contender since the hiring of coach Kyle Shanahan and general manager John Lynch in 2017.
Under York's leadership, San Francisco has reached the Super Bowl three times, losing during the 2012 season under coach Jim Harbaugh and during the 2019 and 2023 seasons under Shanahan and Lynch.
York also oversaw the construction of Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California. The 49ers moved there from San Francisco in 2014. The stadium has since hosted two Super Bowls, a World Cup, and a College Football Playoff championship game.
