Last season Greenlaw confronted an official and was suspended. So this is a better result for #49ers #Broncos Via @TroyRenck on X

What happened: The discipline was reported by Aaron Wilson following San Francisco's 24-14 win over Denver. Last season Greenlaw was suspended after confronting an official.

Why it matters: Paying a fine keeps San Francisco's linebacker rotation intact for upcoming games. A suspension would have forced a depth replacement during the regular season.

What to watch: Greenlaw remains eligible as San Francisco prepares for its next game.
