49ers Coach Kyle Shanahan Wants CEO Jed York to Ban LGBT Merchandise at Levi’s Stadium
San Francisco, September 25, 2025
San Francisco – On the eve of a crucial game in the 2025 NFL season, the atmosphere surrounding the San Francisco 49ers has grown tense, not due to on-field matters, but because of a shocking leaked report within the fan community. According to multiple internal sources, the 49ers’ head coach has proposed to the team’s CEO, Jed York, a special ban: prohibiting the bringing of LGBT-related cheering items into Levi’s Stadium.
Sources indicate that the coach candidly shared:
“The upcoming games are very important for the 49ers. Having flashy fixtures in the stands will only distract the players. I understand not everyone will agree, but it is my responsibility to do everything I can to ensure the team wins, and this move is necessary to do that.”
This news immediately sparked a firestorm of controversy on social media. Some opinions argue that the coach has a point in wanting to create an environment of maximum focus for the players, especially as the team enters a pivotal phase of the season. However, the majority of fans and community groups assert that this move is offensive, going against the spirit of diversity and freedom that is an integral part of NFL culture.
Levi’s Stadium is renowned for its vibrant, colorful atmosphere, and restricting cheering items is seen as breaking the “festive spirit” of American football. Some fans have even voiced strong opposition: “The 49ers are not just a team – we are a diverse family. If this ban happens, it’s no longer a team for everyone.”
To date, neither the CEO nor the 49ers’ management has issued an official response, but this rumor alone has been enough to ignite a fierce wave of controversy. As the next game approaches, the public seems to be watching not only the results on the field but also how the team handles this “storm” off the field.
