After terrorizing old team, 49ers' Dre Greenlaw said he was fueled by Sean Payton's ‘disrespect'
San Francisco 49ers linebacker Dre Greenlaw was more than his usual over-the-top motivated self to beat his former team and particularly his former boss, Broncos head coach Sean Payton.
San Francisco 49ers linebacker Dre Greenlaw targeted Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton after the Broncos' 24-14 loss to the 49ers on Sunday. Greenlaw, who had a turbulent year with the Broncos, expressed his anger at Payton for ignoring him after Greenlaw suffered injuries and was cut by the team. Greenlaw's animosity towards Payton fueled his strong performance, netting a team-high 12 tackles and forcing a fumble in the 49ers' victory.
