SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) -Coach Mike Singletary all but acknowledged the 49ers have filed tampering charges against the New York Jets regarding top San Francisco draft pick Michael Crabtree.
When asked Monday if the teams had filed charges, Singletary said it’s a situation “the league is going to handle internally.” He didn’t elaborate or provide any details on the matter.
The 22-year-old Crabtree, selected No. 10 overall by the Niners in April’s draft, is the last draft pick not signed. The wide receiver is seeking money comparable to higher picks and hasn’t accepted the 49ers’ offer for approximately five years and $20 million, with a reported $16 million guaranteed.
The Jets declined comment.
