San Francisco 49ers Injury History & Analysis

Niners LB Dre Greenlaw appears likely to miss the final two games of the season with soreness in his calf. That's, of course, a more significant issue for Greenlaw than it might be for others because he's coming off an Achilles' tear from last year's Super Bowl. Greenlaw returned to play 30 snaps in Week 15, his first action since the injury. But he made it through just 4 snaps in Sunday's loss to the Dolphins.

Niners Edge Nick Bosa and LB Dre Greenlaw are active for tonight's game against the Rams. Bosa returns after missing the past three games with an oblique injury. He managed just a single limited practice, though, in a walkthrough. Bosa remains a risky play for IDP lineups. Greenlaw's making his 2024 debut. He has been out since suffering an Achilles' tear in the Super Bowl. That makes it tough to know what kind of playing time we can expect from the LB. He's best left on fantasy benches this week. The San Francisco defense can only benefit from getting the stars back, though.

The 49ers expect to get LB Dre Greenlaw back for the Week 15 game against the Rams. He has put in limited practices each day of the past two weeks but was still ruled out for this Sunday's game against the Bears. Greenlaw, of course, has yet to play this season because he's recovering from the Achilles' rupture he suffered in the Super Bowl.
