49ers' Dre Greenlaw suspended for Week 6 matchup with Commanders
Summary

Dre Greenlaw of the San Francisco 49ers has been suspended for one game, missing the upcoming Monday night contest against the Washington Commanders. The NFL upheld the suspension following Greenlaw's involvement in a sideline incident during a previous game against the Seattle Seahawks. He was penalized for violating sportsmanship rules after headbutting a player during a skirmish. With Greenlaw, a key defensive player who has amassed 37 tackles thus far this season, sidelined, rookie Jaden Dugger is expected to step into a starting role. The Commanders are currently struggling with a 1-3-1 record and looking to improve after a tie against the New York Giants.
