49ers linebackers captain the most chaotic quarter of the season against Raiders
Some of the nuttiest football Levi's Stadium has seen.
The San Francisco 49ers' linebacker trio of Fred Warner, Dre Greenlaw, and Jaden Dugger stunned the Las Vegas Raiders during a chaotic quarter in their 38-17 victory on Sunday, Nov. 8, 2026. Despite missing only one game this season, this unit had previously missed a combined 47 games due to injuries or other reasons. Greenlaw served a one-game suspension for headbutting a Seahawks player on the sideline, which may have contributed to his standout performance.
The first turnover of the second half came when Greenlaw intercepted a pass intended for Raiders' Tre Tucker, followed by Warner's fumble recovery and Dugger's interception. Warner's career-high fifth forced fumble highlighted his prowess, and the defense's relentless turnovers kept the Raiders on their heels. Despite brief moments of respite, the chaos returned, with the Raiders scoring a touchdown before Warner once again blocked a QB sneak attempt.
The 49ers' defense, despite recent setbacks, continued to dominate, securing five turnovers in the second half.
