Greenlaw Returns to 49ers, Broncos Move On

0:00It's April 6th. This is NFL News Today Football coverage, powered by AI. The Denver Broncos moved on from linebacker Dre Greenlaw and free agency after a rough 2025 season where injuries kept him off the field. Too much. He only played in eight games with seven starts, grabbing one interception, forcing a fumble, getting one sac, two past afflictions, and 43. Greenlaw opened up about feeling unhappy because he lacked that burst he needed, especially on an $11 million deal, while only seeing half. The snaps, and it meant splitting time with teammates who were bawling out. Broncos coach Sean Payton called it a tough call, praising Greenlaw's passion and fire. But everything lined up for a mutual split that left both. Side's grateful. Now Greenlaw's back with the 49ers where he got his start, and Denver locked in Justin Stronod and Alex Singleton, so it all shakes out smooth. For everybody moving forward.
