Greenlaw (Achilles) is active for Saturday's divisional-round game against the Packers, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Greenlaw was able to get two weeks of rest for his Achilles injury, thanks to his rest for the 49ers' regular-season finale against the Rams and the bye week due to the Niners being the top seed in the NFC. He was a limited participant in Wednesday's and Thursday's practice and will suit up for Saturday's contest. Greenlaw finished the regular season with with 120 tackles (75 solo), including 1.5 sacks, over 15 games.

Greenlaw (Achilles) is listed as questionable for Saturday's divisional-round game against the Packers, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
EDGE Analysis
Greenlaw is tending to an Achilles injury that sidelined him for the 49ers' regular-season finale, and he was a non-participant during the team's practice Tuesday. The 26-year-old followed this up with back-to-back limited sessions, and he was the only San Francisco player listed as questionable on Thursday's injury report. Greenlaw has ranks second on the team in tackles (120) this season behind only 2023 All-Pro Fred Warner (127). Should Greenlaw ultimately sit out again, then Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles and/or Dee Winters will be next in line for increased playing time in the divisional round.

Greenlaw (Achilles) was a limited participant at the 49ers' practice Wednesday, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
Greenlaw sat out the team's final regular season game Jan. 7 and opened the week as a non-participant Wednesday due to an Achilles injury, but his ability to return Wednesday, albeit in limited capacity, bodes well for his chances to go Saturday versus Green Bay. The linebacker will look to increase his workload Thursday ahead of the team's divisional round matchup with the Packers.

Greenlaw (Achilles) didn't participate in Tuesday's practice, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
With San Francisco already having the No. 1 seed in the NFC locked up going into Week 18, Greenlaw was able to rest his Achilles injury in hopes of being ready for the team's divisional round matchup. Despite the two weeks of rest, it seems as if the 26-year-old linebacker is still dealing with this issue. Greenlaw could very well carry an injury designation into Saturday's affair after Tuesday's DNP and his practice participation will be something to look out for over the next few days.

Greenlaw finished Sunday's 27-10 win over the Commanders with 10 tackles (six solo).
EDGE Analysis
Greenlaw registered double-digit tackles for the second-straight game and the fifth time this season. The 2019 fifth-round pick out of Arkansas has accumulated 120 tackles this season, second on the team behind Fred Warner. With the 49ers locked into the top seed of the NFC, it's likely that Greenlaw will see far less snaps -- if any -- in the team's regular-season finale against the Rams.

Greenlaw recorded a season-high 12 tackles (two solo) in the 33-19 loss to the Ravens in Week 16.
EDGE Analysis
Greenlaw's 12 tackles were not only his most this season, but also marked just the fourth time he has reached double digits. He was on the field for every defensive snap, which is the second time this season he has played every snap. The starting weakside linebacker will look to carry that momentum into the 49ers' Week 17 matchup with the Commanders.
