New York Jets Release First Injury Report Before San Francisco 49ers Opener
![New York Jets Release First Injury Report Before San Francisco 49ers Opener New York Jets Release First Injury Report Before San Francisco 49ers Opener](https://images2.minutemediacdn.com/image/upload/c_crop,w_3821,h_2149,x_0,y_185/c_fill,w_1440,ar_16:9,f_auto,q_auto,g_auto/images/ImagnImages/mmsport/jets_country/01j72ctp4rha2nk5twqa.jpg)
The New York Jets held offensive lineman Wes Schweitzer out of Thursday’s practice with a hand injury, the only player held out of workouts with an injury.
The Jets released their first official injury report of the week leading up to Monday’s game with the San Francisco 49ers. The Jets will release additional updates on Friday and Saturday, followed by a game status.
For now, Schweitzer was listed as a DNP, or did not participate. The 30-year-old lineman played for the Jets last season and is entering his ninth NFL season.
Another offensive lineman, tackle Tyron Smith, was held out of workouts but he was not due to injury. The long-time left tackle got a veteran rest day.
New York will likely manage Smith’s work during the week throughout the season. The 33-year-old former Dallas Cowboys All-Pro hasn’t played a full season since 2015. He was last a Pro Bowl selection in 2021.
Four players were listed on the report but were full participants in Thursday’s workout — cornerback Jarrick Bernard-Converse (groin), offensive lineman Max Mitchell (shoulder), offensive lineman Xavier Newman (shoulder) and wide receiver Mike Williams (knee).
Williams suffered an ACL tear last season and the Jets have managed his reps during training camp and the preseason. New York expects him to play in the opener.
The most notable member of the 49ers’ injury report was running back Christian McCaffrey, who was officially listed with a calf/Achilles injury. San Francisco expects him to be a limited participant in practice all week. The calf injury came up at the start of training camp and the Niners held out last year’s NFL rushing leader from all three preseason games.
Two players were held out of practice due to injury — defensive end Yetur Gross-Matos (knee) and linebacker Dee Winters (ankle).
Along with McCaffrey, three other 49ers were limited participants in practice — running back Isaac Guerendo (groin), wide receiver Jauan Jennings (ankle) and offensive lineman Aaron Banks (pinky).
The Jets are coming off a 7-11 2023 in which they lost quarterback Aaron Rodgers for the bulk of the season after he tore his Achilles tendon on the fourth play of the first game. San Francisco went 12-5 and represented the NFC in the Super Bowl, where they lost to the Kansas City Chiefs.
This is the first time the Jets and 49ers have played each other since former San Francisco defensive coordinator Robert Saleh took the Jets’ head-coaching job before the 2021 season. He has not recorded a winning season in New York.

San Francisco 49ers fans upset over controversial new Levi's Stadium tailgating policy

The San Francisco 49ers are speaking out and defending a newly implemented tailgating policy that has not bode well with fans.
The new policy, dubbed directed parking, would allow parking lot attendants to direct cars to the next available parking spot. The team said it hopes the new policy will help with “reducing congestion, improved safety, enhanced accessibility, time savings and improved traffic.”
Since the announcement, over 3,100 people have signed a Change.org petition saying the policy would make it harder for groups to park near one another and that its implementation is a sign of poor communication between the Niners and fans,
“It’s just wrecking everything. It’s definitely going to hurt the experience because the tradition of football is tailgating as well,” said Niner Empire’s Joe Leonor, who started the petition.
Despite pushback, the team said the implementation is all about safety.
“Safety is our top priority,” the team told NBC Bay Area in a statement. “… And while we want to ensure all guests are able to enjoy themselves. Tailgating guidelines are in place to protect the safety of all guests and staff.”
On the team’s website, the Niners acknowledged fans’ concerns and advised them to “sync your arrival or meet your party at a designated area near the stadium and caravan. Unfortunately, if you do not arrive at the same time, we cannot accommodate this request.”
Avid tailgater Rey Pena said he hopes the team reconsiders the policy because it is a way for fans, friends, and family to get together.
“We pride ourselves on our tailgates,” he said. “We show up hours before a tailgate just to get in line and to have this spot to set up so our loved ones, when they do show up, regardless of traffic, [they] can tailgate with us.”
Mark Castanon, another avid tailgater, said changing the way fans can tailgate ruins their enthusiasm.
“Tailgating’ is a way that family comes together. The faithful are family. And I have a lot of family out there in those tailgates,” Castanon said. “That’s what we look forward to. Of course, we love the game. Of course, we love the players. Of course, we love the team and the game, but … we get ready to go by going to the tailgates.”

Incumbent San Francisco Mayor London Breed says childhood memories guide her policy
![Incumbent San Francisco Mayor London Breed says childhood memories guide her policy Incumbent San Francisco Mayor London Breed says childhood memories guide her policy](https://assets1.cbsnewsstatic.com/hub/i/r/2024/09/06/a70fccb4-674b-46f8-ac8d-cde25b05c217/thumbnail/1200x630g2/a48a0250a6f01665826e9e9825f517c5/londonbreed.jpg?v=631cf5f2b4e8db7f9bc428589402864d)
Stepping inside London Breed’s San Francisco apartment, you instantly feel her connection to generations of family that she says are bonded both by blood and by love.
“I remember this day when I took this picture,” she points at a photo of her kindergarten self. “I remember crying because I didn’t want to wear this shirt. Because I was wearing this shirt almost every day. So, it was like, ‘I want to wear a different shirt.’ I mean, even at five, I was a piece of work. I didn’t understand we didn’t have it to buy a different shirt it was like you’re going to wear what you have.”
She was raised by her grandmother Comelia, whose impact can be felt in each part of the mayor’s home which she’s rented for several years.
“Photos, if we were lucky enough to take any, you know it was a big deal, because now you have them on your cameras, but I don’t have a lot of pictures from when I was a kid,” she explained. “Because we didn’t have money for that.”
But to a young London, growing up in poverty and dependent on food stamps in the same city she now leads, she never could have imagined the shoes she’d later step into.
“I know what it feels like for people in positions like this to make decisions that negatively impact my community,” she explained, reflecting on her upbringing. “And I never want to be one of those people.”
To prepare to make decisions she hopes will carry a positive impact, each morning she tries to dedicate a moment just for herself. Making coffee, watering her beloved plants, and hopping on her Peloton bike for a ride with favorite Cody Riggsby while reviewing her notes for the day.
All with a reminder of her grandmother’s strength.
“A bit of that tough love that my grandmother it was like, you cannot live here unless you do your homework, make up your bed and clean up. There were rules, and I believe in rules,” said Breed. “I believe in structure and that allows for everyone to have an opportunity to be a part of a better community, a better society. I hope is that people learn that it’s not just politics. For me, it’s very personal.”
Her role as mayor has brought some healing to Breed, who recalls her own experience living among conditions she’s worked to improve during her six years in office.
“I know what that’s like, to count pennies, to roll up pennies and to go in with my 50 cents, you know, and try to buy something,” she said. “Being housing insecure and being afraid because of the violence, and being poor and broke and just feeling hurt and angry about everything all the time. It just was most of my life because we had no choice.”
But it’s a time she tries to apply in each decision she makes.
“It is definitely a blessing to be able to go through that and to use those same experiences as a way to shape policy that could hopefully lead to better results for the people who have similar experiences like I do,” Breed said.
