SANTA CLARA–We have rarely seen 49ers CEO Jed York step up to the podium and address the media and he’s stepped back from speaking this season. He mentioned that and in effect he doesn’t want to be a distraction to this team so what he’s deciding to do is he’s taking a step back.

He mentioned that he would step back on social media, if you remember York a few years back before this terrible season the 49ers had we saw York talk a lot. Today was the first time we got to speak to York and he addressed the fans right off the bat by apologizing that this season was unacceptable.

York takes the blame and he’s trying to get this team back to a Super Bowl winning team. York also mentioned that he’s keeping general manager Trent Baalke on as team general manager. Which raises a very interesting question why would Baalke remain on? When you look at Baalke’s draft picks and how York used this that this would be an important picks.
