Rapoport: 49ers’ Dre Greenlaw a ‘long-shot’ to play vs. Seahawks

According to NFL insider Ian Rapoport, San Francisco 49ers linebacker Dre Greenlaw is a "long-shot" to play against the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday. However, Rapoport notes that the 49ers have not ruled out the defender. Greenlaw won't practice today, and the team will monitor him through the week.


The 49ers have already ruled out linebacker Fred Warner, who suffered a hamstring strain against the Minnesota Vikings this past weekend. However, San Francisco hopes to have him back for Week 14 against the Cincinnati Bengals.

Greenlaw irritated his core muscle injury against the Vikings, and head coach Kyle Shanahan declared him to be day-to-day this week. It's the same injury that landed Greenlaw on injured reserve after Week 1.

"We'll see how this week goes," Shanahan said on Monday.

San Francisco made Greenlaw a fifth-round draft pick in 2019. In three NFL seasons, he has recorded 187 tackles, 10 tackles for a loss, two sacks, four quarterback hits, two interceptions, a touchdown, and four passes defended through 31 game appearances and 23 starts.

The absence of Greenlaw leaves the 49ers with linebackers Azeez Al-Shaair, Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles, and Marcell Harris. Harris, however, is in the concussion protocol this week. The team also has Tyrell Adams on the practice squad.

Offensive lineman Jon Feliciano and linebacker Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles recently re-signed with the San Francisco 49ers on one-year deals.
