49ers' Dre Greenlaw: Suspension upheld
Greenlaw's appeal of a one-game suspension was denied by the NFL on Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
The suspension stemmed from Greenlaw's actions during the 49ers' Week 5 win over the Seahawks, when he used his helmet to headbutt Ernest Jones during a skirmish on Seattle's sidelines. Greenlaw was unsuccessful in his appeal, so he'll be sidelined for San Francisco's Week 6 home game against the Commanders on Monday. With Garret Wallow (hamstring) facing a multi-game absence, Luke Gifford figures to step into a starting role at linebacker alongside Fred Warner and Jaden Dugger while Greenlaw is sidelined.

49ers' Dre Greenlaw: Draws one-game suspension
Greenlaw was handed a one-game suspension without pay Monday for an act of unsportsmanlike conduct during Sunday's 32-29 win over the Seahawks, Tom Pelissero of Netflix reports.
The suspension stems from an incident that occurred midway through the second quarter, when Greenlaw was involved in a skirmish on the Seattle sideline and used his helmet to headbutt the Seahawks' Ernest Jones, who wasn't wearing a helmet. Per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, Greenlaw will appeal the suspension, but his history -- with the Broncos last season, he also received a one-game ban for unsportsmanlike conduct -- may work against him in getting the suspension overturned. Barring a successful appeal, the veteran linebacker will miss the 49ers' Week 6 game against the Commanders before returning to action Oct. 25 versus the Falcons.

49ers' Dre Greenlaw: San Fran's leading tackler in win
Greenlaw recorded 12 tackles (seven solo) and forced a fumble during Sunday's 24-14 win versus the Broncos.
Greenlaw looked like he was out for revenge against the team that cut him back in March, managing his best tackle total since the 2023 season. He's worth IDP consideration in most formats going into a Week 5 matchup against a run-oriented Seahawks offense.

49ers' Dre Greenlaw: Cleared to play against Denver
Greenlaw (quadriceps) is active for Sunday's game against the Broncos.
Greenlaw has been officially cleared by medical staff to play Sunday, with the veteran linebacker being limited in practice by a quadriceps injury. He'll start alongside Fred Warner and Jaden Dugger at linebacker while Luke Gifford and Garret Wallow provide depth at the position.

49ers' Dre Greenlaw: Trending toward playing vs. Denver
Greenlaw (quadriceps) is expected to play against the Broncos on Sunday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
Greenlaw drew the questionable tag for Week 4 after logging a DNP-DNP-LP practice log. The veteran linebacker is nursing a quadriceps injury, but it looks like he'll suit up for Sunday's home tilt. Greenlaw has 22 tackles (nine solo) through the first three games of the regular season.

49ers' Dre Greenlaw: Might not suit up Sunday
Greenlaw (quadriceps) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Denver.
Greenlaw missed practice Wednesday and Thursday. While he was out there in a limited capacity Friday, he will still carry a questionable tag ahead of the Week 4 meeting with the Broncos. If Greenlaw doesn't suit up Sunday, Garret Wallow should fill most of the void.

49ers' Dre Greenlaw: Misses another practice
Greenlaw (quadriceps) did not practice Thursday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Greenlaw suffered a quadriceps injury late in the victory over Arizona on Sunday. Since then, he has missed two consecutive practices, so he will have another opportunity Friday to make some progress. If Greenlaw is unavailable versus Denver in Week 4, Garret Wallow may be needed to fill the void in the lineup.

49ers' Dre Greenlaw: DNP to open Week 4 prep
Greenlaw (quadriceps) didn't practice Wednesday, Vic Tafur of The Athletic reports.
Greenlaw injured his quad during the fourth quarter of the 49ers' 36-30 win over the Cardinals in Week 3, when he logged eight tackles (three solo). The veteran linebacker will need to return to practice in at least a limited capacity over the coming days to have a realistic chance of playing against the Broncos on Sunday. If Greenlaw is unable to play, then Garret Wallow would likely start alongside Fred Warner and Jaden Dugger at linebacker.

49ers' Dre Greenlaw: Registers six tackles Week 1
Greenlaw logged six tackles (one solo) during the 49ers' 27-7 win over the Rams in Week 1.
Greenlaw played 40 of 61 defensive snaps (65.6 percent) in San Francisco's Week 1 victory and finished tied with Deommodore Lenoir as the team's third-leading tackler behind Fred Warner (11) and Marques Sigle (nine). It was just the 11th regular-season game that Greenlaw has appeared in since tearing his Achilles in Super Bowl LVIII at the end of the 2023 season, as the veteran linebacker has also dealt with other lower-body injuries since. His defensive snaps figure to be closely monitored given his injury history, but the addition of Greenlaw in the offseason bolstered the 49ers' linebacker corps that also consists of Warner and Luke Gifford.

49ers' Dre Greenlaw: Set to suit up
Greenlaw (Achilles) does not have an injury designation ahead of Thursday's contest against the Rams, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Greenlaw dealt with Achilles discomfort earlier in the week, which caused him to be limited in Tuesday's session. The starting weakside linebacker has gotten over the trouble and is all set to suit up for Thursday's divisional clash with the Rams in Melbourne, Australia.

49ers' Dre Greenlaw: Limited at practice Tuesday
Greenlaw (Achilles) was a limited participant at the 49ers' practice Tuesday, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Greenlaw is dealing with some Achilles discomfort to open the week at practice, but his ability to participate in any capacity Tuesday seems to suggest it is likely a minor issue. The veteran's participation at practice Wednesday will provide more clarity toward his status for Thursday night's regular-season opener against Los Angeles.
