49ers’ Kyle Shanahan addresses Jed York suspension and impact on trades

The NFL has suspended San Francisco 49ers principal owner Jed York for six games and fined him $500,000 following legal issues in August. York has already missed the team's first three games, meaning three games remain on the suspension. Head coach Kyle Shanahan had a brief reaction to the news, noting that the team has operated this way for three weeks and expects no changes to day-to-day operations.

Wide receiver Mike Evans stated he had not heard about the punishment, noting that players must ignore outside noise while he manages a rib injury ahead of Sunday's game against the Denver Broncos. Shanahan added that any major trade decisions during York's absence would likely be discussed with co-chairman John York, though final football calls typically rest with Shanahan and general manager John Lynch.
