NFL Suspends 49ers Linebacker Dre Greenlaw for One Game After Headbutt
The linebacker can appeal the discipline through the NFL Players Association after the league cited poor sportsmanship.
- On Monday, the National Football League suspended San Francisco 49ers linebacker Dre Greenlaw for one game without pay for unsportsmanlike conduct during Sunday's 32-29 victory over the Seattle Seahawks.
- The suspension stems from a second-quarter incident where Greenlaw headbutted Seahawks linebacker Ernest Jones on the Seattle sideline after bumping quarterback Sam Darnold during a scramble.
- Ejected from Sunday's game, Greenlaw has a history of disciplinary issues, including a prior suspension for verbally threatening referee Brad Allen and ejections against Philadelphia and the Los Angeles Chargers.
- Greenlaw has the right to appeal through the NFL Players Association but will miss next Monday's game against the Washington Commanders, where Jaden Dugger will fill in.
- Under the suspension terms, Greenlaw is eligible to return to the 49ers' active roster on October 20, following San Francisco's game against the Washington Commanders.
