A flag and an ejection weren’t the only punishments for 49ers linebacker Dre Greenlaw for his helmet-to-helmet shot on Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert. The NFL announced Greenlaw was also fined $10,609 for the infraction.
It was a tough play for Greenlaw since Herbert was being tackled from behind by Fred Warner. Jimmie Ward then came in and hit Herbert from behind which altered his trajectory as Greenlaw was lowering his shoulder for the hit.
