James Thrash upholds Dre Greenlaw suspension for head-butting incident
NBC Sports • • sports
Key Points:
- The NFL upheld a one-game suspension for 49ers linebacker Dre Greenlaw following an incident in Sunday’s game where he head-butted Seahawks linebacker Ernest Jones IV, leading to his ejection.
- This suspension marks Greenlaw’s third ejection since 2022, with a previous one-game suspension last year related to his conduct toward a referee.
- Greenlaw will forfeit $136,388 in base salary and a $23,529 active roster bonus for the suspended game, and the 49ers may seek partial repayment of his $2.5 million signing bonus.
- Missing the game will also impact Greenlaw’s chances of earning a $750,000 playing time incentive, which could double if the 49ers make the playoffs.
