Greenlaw has three days to appeal the decision.
The veteran linebacker was playing in his first game since signing with the Broncos in the offseason. He only played two games in 2024 as he recovered from a torn Achilles injury he suffered during the San Francisco 49ers Super Bowl LVIII loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.
Greenlaw, 28, has played in 65 career games over seven years in the NFL. He has 461 total tackles and 3.5 sacks on his resume.
