Dre Greenlaw hits Sam Darnold along Seahawks bench, then chaos and ejection follow with more to come from NFL

Key Points:

• San Francisco 49ers linebacker Dre Greenlaw was ejected from Sunday's game against the Seattle Seahawks after hitting quarterback Sam Darnold out of bounds and then headbutting Seahawks linebacker Ernest Jones on the sideline.
• The altercation occurred during the second quarter at Lumen Field, with Greenlaw receiving a personal foul and being surrounded by Seahawks players before the headbutt led to his ejection.
• The NFL will review the incident post-game and could impose further discipline such as a fine or suspension, depending on whether the act is deemed "conduct detrimental to the League" or a severe player safety violation.
• Greenlaw has a history of emotional outbursts resulting in fines and suspensions, including a prior suspension for threatening a referee and recent fines for unsportsmanlike conduct and sideline altercations.
• The league's disciplinary process evaluates each incident individually, with suspensions not automatic but decided case-by-case by NFL disciplinary officers.
