When healthy, Greenlaw, who now rejoins former 49ers teammate Talanoa Hufanga in Denver, has been one of the league’s most productive off-ball linebackers. He had 455 tackles, 3.5 sacks, 2 forced fumbles, 2 fumble recoveries, 3 interceptions and 14 passes defended for the San Francisco 49ers since entering the league in 2019.
