San Francisco 49ers owner Jed York could be punished by NFL for prostitution arrest

San Francisco 49ers owner and CEO Jed York was arrested in Ohio over the weekend and pleaded no contest to amended charges originally stemming from a prostitution arrest. Now, he could face punishment from the NFL. Carter Evans reports.

The owner of the San Francisco 49ers, Jed York, was arrested in East Palestine, Ohio over the weekend on two misdemeanor charges of disorderly conduct and possessing criminal tools. York pleaded no contest to the charges, which were initially for engaging in prostitution. He was ordered to serve one day in jail for each charge, concurrently, and paid a total of $1,150 in fines.

The seized $160 was given to a human trafficking task force. York, born in Youngstown and a graduate of the University of Notre Dame, has been the 49ers' chief executive officer since 2010 and officially became the principal owner in 2024 after purchasing additional equity from his mother, Denise DeBartolo York. York is married to Danielle Belluomini, but filed for divorce in May 2026.

The couple has been married for 15 years and has two school-age boys. York has a net worth of $500 million. The arrest of York has led the NFL to investigate him for potential disciplinary action under its personal conduct policy.
