MLB players' association head acknowledges federal investigation into OneTeam Partners

ATLANTA (AP) — Baseball players' association head Tony Clark acknowledged a federal investigation into One Team Partners, a licensing company it founded with the NFL Players Association.
'We understand that there is an investigation going on right now and we have and we will continue to fully cooperate with that investigation,' Clark told the Baseball Writers' Association of America on Tuesday.
The government has not commented on its probe.
OneTeam says on its website that it's 'the first multi-billion-dollar company built for athletes, by athletes.' It helps license player rights for sponsorships, media content, video games and more.
Clark defended the union's financial transparency with its members.
'An audit's done every year,' he said. 'The players as a group wanted to go through all of it. And so we went through all of it and then that group presented those findings to players at the board meeting.'

49ers WR Jauan Jennings hasn't formally requested a trade, expected to start camp amid push for new contract

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings has not formally requested a trade away from the organization amid his push for a new deal. 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan confirmed as much on Tuesday, and said that he expects Jennings to be out on the field and participating in the first day of training camp on Wednesday. 'We anticipate him being out there,' general manager John Lynch said, via The Athletic's Vic Tafur. 'You guys know our feelings about JJ. He embodies what we think a Niner's all about. Plays the right way, and we love him. I think all that stuff, we're not going to talk about contracts and all that, that takes care of itself. But we love him and he's here.' [Join or create a Yahoo Fantasy Football league for the 2025 NFL season] ESPN's Adam Schefter reported last week that Jennings has made it clear that he either wants a new contract with the organization or to be traded away. Jennings is set to make $7.5 million this season in the final year of his deal. According to Schefter, little progress has been made on an extension. But, if that's not done by the time camp opens on Wednesday, Jennings planned to make that formal request. It's unclear if that is still Jennings' plan, or if things have changed on that front. While there is still time to get such a deal done under that timeframe, it's very limited. Clearly, both Shanahan and Lynch believe that Jennings will be out there with the team come Wednesday regardless of the status of his new deal. Jennings, who the 49ers selected in the seventh round of the 2020 NFL Draft out of Tennessee, had 975 yards and six touchdowns on 77 catches last season. Those were all career-highs for the 28-year-old. Jennings signed a two-year, $15.39 million extension last summer to remain with the team this fall, though he'll become an unrestricted free agent next season if a new deal isn't reached. Even if Jennings doesn't hold out of training camp while angling for a new deal, that doesn't mean he'll necessarily be happy participating. If a new contract isn't reached in San Francisco soon, he could very easily find himself somewhere else by the start of the season.

US audit watchdog bars, fines Hong Kong auditor

NEW YORK (Reuters) -The U.S. Public Company Accounting Oversight Board said on Tuesday it had revoked the license of a Hong Kong firm and barred its owner for violating audit rules related to companies operating in China, including Luckin Coffee Inc. The PCAOB said in a statement it had sanctioned Centurion ZD CPA & Co and its owner Chan Kam Fuk and hit them with a civil penalty of $75,000 for violating the board's rules and standards in connection with its audit work for three firms. The auditor failed to properly assess risk and get sufficient audit evidence from Luckin in a 2022 opinion of the firm's 2021 financial reporting, the PCAOB said. The Chinese coffee firm in 2020 had settled accounting fraud charges with the SEC. The firm and Chan failed to use information about the fraud in the subsequent year's audit, PCAOB said. Centurion also violated PCAOB standards in connection with the audit of a second Chinese company and with audit procedures for some subsidiaries of a Malaysian firm, the PCAOB said. Chan and Centurion did not admit or deny the findings. A lawyer for both did not respond immediately to request for comment.
