During the second quarter of Sunday's divisional game between the San Francisco 49ers and the Seattle Seahawks, 49ers linebacker Dre Greenlaw was disqualified from play. The ejection followed a sequence of events involving a late hit and a subsequent head-butt directed toward Seahawks player Jones, who was not wearing his helmet at the time of the contact.

Officials made the decision to remove Greenlaw from the game immediately following the incident. While the report confirms the sequence of the late hit and the head-butt, it does not provide further details regarding the specific officiating rules cited for the ejection or any potential disciplinary actions from the league office. The game continued without Greenlaw, who is a key defensive player for the 49ers. No further information regarding the physical condition of Jones or any response from the 49ers coaching staff was included in the initial report.
