The San Francisco 49ers have been surrounded by headlines throughout the offseason and into training camp. Now, as the team prepares for its final preseason game against the Las Vegas Raiders, another major story has emerged: 49ers owner Jed York was arrested in Ohio. Still, the team appears focused on the task at hand. Head coach Kyle Shanahan confirmed that the situation hasn’t become a distraction for his players. 

“Well, the one thing that went on yesterday [after Jed York’s arrest], I don’t think pertained to our players much,” Shanahan said. 

Now, all eyes will turn to Aug. 27, when the 49ers face the Raiders at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. Nick Bosa’s absence will be another storyline to watch as San Francisco prepares for the preseason finale. So, can the 49ers rise above all the outside noise? We’ll take a look at the broadcast details for their matchup with the Raiders. But that’s not all.
