NFL reviews Jed York’s conduct after Ohio prostitution sting

Commissioner Roger Goodell said the league is examining whether San Francisco 49ers owner Jed York faces discipline over an incident in Ohio.

The NFL is reviewing whether San Francisco 49ers owner Jed York should be punished under its personal conduct policy after an Ohio prostitution sting, commissioner Roger Goodell said Wednesday in Atlanta. Goodell made the remarks at the league’s owners meetings.

According to Goodell, the matter is being examined under the policy that governs off-field behavior by league figures. He said the NFL would provide an update if there is something to announce.

York was caught in the sting in Ohio and later pleaded no contest to two misdemeanor charges, according to the source material. The league has previously disciplined owners for misconduct under its conduct rules.

The review comes as the NFL continues to apply its personal conduct policy to cases involving team owners and other league personnel.
