The San Francisco 49ers dominated in Week 1, defeating the Pittsburgh Steelers 30-7 with a strong performance on both sides of the ball, coming out the game injury-free.
However, the team didn't come out of the game fine-free, unfortunately, as cornerback Deommodore Lenoir was fined $5,618 for an unnecessary roughness penalty for his hit out of bounds against Steelers running back Najee Harris in the first half of Week 1, according to NBC Sports's Najee Harris.
#49ers CB Deommodore Lenoir was fined $5,618 for unnecessary roughness for his hit out of bounds against Steelers RB Najee Harris late in the first half of Week 1.
The play came at 1:24 remaining in the second quarter when Harris broke free for a 24-yard gain, with the Steelers earning 15 extra yards due to Lenoir's penalty, setting them up at the San Francisco 47-yard line.
Lenoir's penalty was a critical one in Week 1, as it provided the Steelers with a new set of downs as they operated a two-minute drill late in the first half, leading to their lone score of the game.
As a whole, the 49ers were nowhere near penalty-free on Sunday, committing 11 flags for 85 lost yards against the Steelers, although it ultimately didn't matter, as San Francisco cruised to victory on the day.
The cornerback, however, had a solid game, racking up 10 tackles while rotating between the nickel and outside corner spot.

49ers demolish Giants in Week 3 victory: Key takeaways

It's hard to think of the New York Giants without some painful postseason memories. And that's why it's always so sweet to beat them soundly. And the San Francisco 49ers did just that on Thursday night, winning 30-12, and improving to 3-0 on the season.
Although the score was relatively close at halftime, it wasn't as close statistically. And by the end of the game, it was even more lopsided, on the scoreboard and on the stat sheet. When you have more YAC (yards after the catch/contact) than the other team has yards, you've thoroughly beaten your opponent.
The Giants had 150 yards of total offense.The
