Dre Greenlaw Fantasy

San Francisco 49ers linebacker Dre Greenlaw (groin) plans to have surgery either Thursday or Friday to fix a groin injury, according to a source. Greenlaw will miss six to eight weeks after the surgery. The 24-year-old had a big game in the Week 1 victory over the Detroit Lions, recording six tackles (four solo) and an interception that he returned to the house for a touchdown. Marcell Harris will see a big increase in defensive snaps in the middle of San Fran's defense with Greenlaw now out for the foreseeable future. It's a blow to the 49ers defense/special teams unit in fantasy, and they certainly won't have the kind of upside they had in Week 1 when they face the Philadelphia Eagles on the road this Sunday.

San Francisco 49ers linebacker Dre Greenlaw has drawn significant praise through nine days of training camp. The rookie out of Arkansas has already earned reps with the first team defense and could be the best man coverage linebacker in the group. With projected starters Fred Warner, Kwon Alexander and Malcolm Smith playing up to standards, Greenlaw may not earn the starter tag but should get significant run. Hes shaping up to be a bargain for the Niners in the fifth round of the 2019 draft.
