Update Broke ‘Removal’ Functionality

On our site, there are certain post types that create head/OG Tags Dynamically since the data is NOT coming from our post/pages — but through an external API. The following code WAS working until the update.

How do I prevent Yoast from running on certain pages and content types that are already programmed to create their own dynamic SEO descriptions, titles, etc?

add_action('template_redirect','remove_wpseo');
function remove_wpseo(){

$post = get_queried_object();
$postType = get_post_type_object(get_post_type($post));
if ($postType) {
    $type=esc_html($postType->labels->singular_name);
}
    if( 'News Item' == $type ){
        $wpseo_front = WPSEO_Frontend::get_instance();
            if($wpseo_front){
                remove_action('wp_head',array($wpseo_front,'head'),1);
                remove_action('wp_head', '_wp_render_title_tag', 1 );
            }
            else {
              $wp_thing = WPSEO_Frontend::get_instance();
              remove_action('wp_head',array($wp_thing,'head'),1);
              remove_action( 'wp_head', '_wp_render_title_tag', 1 );
            }
    }
}
