Greenlaw (Achilles/knee) was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday's injury report. Greenlaw made his 2024 regular-season debut this past Thursday against the Rams, playing 30 defensive snaps and logging eight tackles (three solo) in the process. It was his first game since he tore his Achilles during Super Bowll LVIII against the Chiefs in February, and he'll likely have his practice participation and snap count limited over the final three games of the regular season. As long as he's able to practice in at least a limited capacity over the next two days, he should be able to play against Miami on Sunday.

Greenlaw (Achilles/knee) was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday's injury report. Greenlaw made his 2024 regular-season debut this past Thursday against the Rams, playing 30 defensive snaps and logging eight tackles (three solo) in the process. It was his first game since he tore his Achilles during Super Bowll LVIII against the Chiefs in February, and he'll likely have his practice participation and snap count limited over the final three games of the regular season. As long as he's able to practice in at least a limited capacity over the next two days, he should be able to play against Miami on Sunday.
San Francisco head coach Kyle Shanahan said Friday that Greenlaw (Achilles/knee) "checked out good" after making his season debut during Thursday's 12-6 loss to the Rams, and that he's now dealing with soreness and is considered day-to-day, David Lombardi of SFStandard.com reports. Greenlaw played 30 defensive snaps (47 percent) Thursday, his first on-field action since having suffered a torn Achilles during Super Bowl LVIII back in February. Given that context, it's unsurprising to see the veteran linebacker dealing with some amount of soreness after Thursday's loss. The 49ers may take a cautious approach to Greenlaw's health leading up to the team's upcoming Week 16 road matchup against Miami. He made eight tackles (three solo) versus Los Angeles.
Greenlaw did not play for most of the second half of Thursday's 12-6 loss to the Rams due to Achilles and knee tightness, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports. Greenlaw was making his season debut after recovering from a torn Achilles, so the nature of the injury is a concern. However, the team reported that he did not suffer another tear, instead saying that he was suffering primarily from fatigue and tightness in both his Achilles and knee.
Greenlaw (Achilles) is active for Thursday Night Football against the Rams, Lindsey Pallares of the 49ers' official site reports. The linebacker was activated from the reserve/PUP list earlier in the day Thursday after putting in a full practice Wednesday. Greenlaw topped the 100-tackle mark in each of the last two campaigns before tearing his left Achilles while running back onto the field during Super Bowl LVIII back in February. The injury was serious enough to keep him out until the middle of December, so it's unclear how much Greenlaw will play Thursday.
The 49ers have activated Greenlaw (Achilles) from the reserve/PUP list, but he remains questionable for Thursday's game against the Rams. After opening Week 15 prep with back-to-back limited listings, Greenlaw finally logged a full practice Wednesday, indicating he should be able to handle a decent role in Thursday's contest. First, though, he'll have to avoid being included on the 49ers' list of inactives. Greenlaw is coming off two consecutive campaigns with 100-tackle tallies, but he also tore his left Achilles while attempting to run back on the field during Super Bowl LVIII back in February, so it'd be understandable if San Francisco eases him back in.
Greenlaw (Achilles) is expected to be activated from the reserve/PUP list and suit up Thursday night for San Francisco's home matchup against the Rams, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports. Greenlaw is expected to make his 2024 debut on Thursday Night Football, but the 49ers will first have to officially activate him to the 53-man roster. The veteran linebacker was designated to resume practicing Nov. 27 and managed to resume full participation levels Wednesday. Greenlaw is working his way back from a left Achilles tear sustained in Super Bowl LVIII against the Chiefs.
Greenlaw (Achilles) is listed as questionable ahead of Thursday night's matchup against the Rams, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports. Greenlaw was designated to return from injured reserve Nov. 27 and practiced in full capacity Wednesday, suggesting he's ready to return for the 49ers' divisional matchup Thursday night. However, the Arkansas product remains on the reserve/PUP list and must be activated to the San Francisco's active roster in order to play in Week 15. If he's unable to suit up, expect De'Vondre Campbell to serve as one of the 49ers' top inside linebackers.
Greenlaw (Achilles) was listed as a limited participant on Monday's practice estimation, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports. Greenlaw was limited in practice all week as he enters the final stages of his recovery from a torn Achilles injury that he suffered in Super Bowl LVIII against Kansas City. The 49ers didn't practice Monday, but even if Greenlaw were to participate in practice Tuesday and Wednesday, it wouldn't guarantee that he would be activated off the reserve/PUP list ahead of Thursday night's game against the Rams.
Greenlaw (Achilles) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Bears, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports. The veteran linebacker has yet to play this season after tearing his Achilles in Super Bowl LVII against the Chiefs. Greenlaw was designated to return from injured reserve Nov. 27 and practiced in a limited capacity throughout the week; however, it appears he's not ready to return in Week 14. Expect Dee Winters to serve as one of the 49ers' top linebackers with Greenlaw sidelined Sunday.
