Dre Greenlaw suspended one game for Seahawks altercation

Misses Monday night game vs. Commanders

Wire Report IntelligenceUpdated 1h1 min read

What happened: The NFL suspended Dre Greenlaw without pay for one game for unsportsmanlike conduct Sunday against Seattle. The discipline followed his ejection for headbutting Ernest Jones IV while Jones was not wearing a helmet.

Why it matters: San Francisco beat Seattle 32-29 Sunday to stay in the early NFC West race. Losing a starting linebacker for a primetime game forces a reshuffle of defensive snaps and special-teams roles.

By the numbers: Greenlaw made 43 tackles with 1 sack and 1 interception in 8 games in 2025 with the Broncos, per ESPN. San Francisco beat Seattle 32-29 on Oct. 12.

What to watch: Greenlaw will be eligible to return after sitting out Monday night. San Francisco faces the Commanders in that Monday night game.
