Pregame emotions result in brief scuffle before 49ers face Browns, with Trent Williams rushing in to defend teammate Deebo Samuel.
CLEVELAND, OHIO – OCTOBER 15: Kyle Juszczyk #44 of the San Francisco 49ers and Christian McCaffrey #23 of the San Francisco 49ers celebrate after McCaffrey’s receiving touchdown during the first quarter against the Cleveland Browns at Cleveland Browns Stadium on October 15, 2023 in Cleveland, Ohio. The 49ers look to keep their perfect start intact Sunday in Cleveland, where they’ll face the NFL’s No. 1 overall defense, but won’t see starting quarterback Deshaun Watson.
The 49ers huddled up as a team shortly thereafter, and it wasn’t just Fred Warner in the middle as usual but an animated Aiyuk hyping up his teammates.Once pregame warmups concluded 10 minutes later, the 49ers filed down the sideline toward their locker room, and Browns linebackers Anthony Walker and Matthew Adams stood nearby with their arms crossed, and with officials serving as a barrier between them and the 49ers.
Greenlaw’s 37 tackles are second only to fellow linebacker Fred Warner’s 54; Greenlaw notched his first sack of the season to close out last Sunday night’s first half in the 42-10 win over the Dallas Cowboys. Other inactives: offensive lineman Matt Pryor, defensive lineman Kalia Davis, linebacker Jalen Graham and tight end Brayden Willis, along with emergency No. 3 quarterback Brandon Allen.
