According to NBC Bay Area news reporter Damian Trujillo, San Francisco 49ers fullback Bruce Miller has pleaded no contest to his misdemeanor disturbing the peace for prior domestic violence call.
According to authorities, Miller was charged with a domestic-violence misdemeanor stemming from a March 5 argument with his ex-fiancée. Miller had pleaded not guilty to one count of misdemeanor vandalism and remained free on $10,000 bail.
A judge had issued a no-contact protective order between Miller and his ex-fiancée. Miller was also ordered by the court to attend a 16-week course in domestic-violence counseling.
Miller has not been participating in the team's optional offseason activities with general manager Trent Baalke stating, "We sat down with Bruce and feel it's very important for him to handle this situation and once it's handled, we'll move on from there."
Regarding this latest turn of events, Matt Barrows of the Sacramento Bee reports that Baalke had this to say...
"Bruce knows what we expect of him as a member of this team and he has committed to taking the necessary steps to grow from this experience."

Rapoport: 49ers send clear message to teams inquiring about Brandon Aiyuk
Ian Rapoport didn't offer much of an update on the ongoing contract negotiations between the San Francisco 49ers and their standout wide receiver, Brandon Aiyuk. However, the NFL insider emphasized one thing: The team is not entertaining trade discussions at this juncture.
Reacting to Aiyuk's decision to unfollow the 49ers on Instagram, Rapoport couldn't help but chuckle at the latest development. This practice has become commonplace among players who are unhappy with their contract situations. Wide receiver Deebo Samuel similarly took this action in 2022 before requesting to be traded just before the draft.

With the 2024 NFL Draft less than a week away, it's common for the rumor mill to start churning, especially with players who are actively seeking a new contract. It was just two short years ago that WR Deebo Samuel requested a trade from the San Francisco 49ers prior to draft day, only for cooler heads to prevail and eventually agree to a new deal.
Now, it's WR Brandon Aiyuk's turn to try and get paid and rumors surfaced over the weekend that he too would request to be dealt. While that report was quickly shot down by his agent, there's still a lot of discussion about Aiyuk's future and if other teams will come calling on draft night.
