Earlier in the week, 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan said he has no hard feelings toward Dom DiSandro.
“I know a lot of people who know him and speak very highly of him,” Shanahan said. “I just couldn’t believe we lost our player because of it.”

“I hate that it even escalated and went to that, that’s never something I’ve ever been a part of or seen in a game,” Greenlaw said.
