Skule's father, Joshua, has been an FBI agent for over 20 years, having spent a decade each in Chicago and Washington D.C. Currently, he is the Executive Assistant Director for Intelligence. He was appointed counter terrorism section chief by former FBI director Robert Mueller in 2012 and head of intelligence by former FBI director James Comey in 2016. Joshua deals with terrorism, election hacking, mass shootings and mandates from the White House on any given work day, and not even gameday is an exception. If a "significant crisis event" occurs, Joshua must be ready to take a high-priority conference call, regardless of what is happening on the field. "I'm always curious about who he's talking to when he takes those calls, but he can't say," Justin said. "When I'm playing a game, I obviously don't know what's going on with him," said Justin. "But when I've been with him at my younger siblings' games, he'll get one of those calls, and you just know it's important."

The 49ers teamed up with the activist content company, One Community, to show a special private screening of the movie Just Mercy to a group of high school students from the African American Community Services Agency. The screening was followed by a group discussion led by Scott Budnick, who executive produced the movie, along with the players in attendance. The event was a part of the NFL's Inspire Change initiative, which encourages teams to support programs that reduce barriers to opportunity. The three priority areas of this initiative are: education and economic advancement, police and community relations, and criminal justice reform.
