Overview
- During training camp last weekend, Lenoir publicly apologized for the June arrest in Los Angeles, marking his first comments since the incident.
- Police allege he resisted a peace officer during a traffic stop after he refused to hand over car keys tossed by another occupant whose vehicle contained a firearm.
- Under California law, the Los Angeles City Attorney’s Office has up to a year to file misdemeanor charges and Lenoir’s case has not yet been formally submitted to court.
- The 25-year-old cornerback said the episode taught him to steer clear of “areas I shouldn’t be” and underscored his personal growth over the past five years.
- With veteran Charvarius Ward gone, Lenoir has stepped into a leadership role in the 49ers’ revamped secondary, mentoring younger defensive backs during training camp.
