Fred Warner sends stern reminder who runs the Bay after hammering Raiders

The San Francisco 49ers beat the Las Vegas Raiders 38-17, and linebacker Fred Warner framed the result as a statement in the teams’ lingering Bay Area rivalry. The Raiders moved from Oakland to Las Vegas in 2020, but the game still carried local significance for players and fans.

Warner made five combined tackles, forced a fumble and recovered another in the end zone. San Francisco’s defence forced five turnovers in the second half: three interceptions and two fumbles. It was only the teams’ second meeting since the move, with the 49ers winning both; their all-time series had been tied at seven apiece when the Raiders left Oakland.
