Thompson: Dre Greenlaw wouldn’t go down, and neither did the 49ers thanks to him

New York Times  

Update: The Super Bowl matchup is set with the Chiefs vs. 49ers. I’m like, ‘Oh, heavens.’” Green Bay receiver Jayden Reed was suddenly surging from behind Greenlaw. “I can’t believe he didn’t get down right away,” head coach Kyle Shanahan said, later adding, “We’ll put him on offense if he really wants to run with the ball that bad.” “Oh yeah,” Greenlaw said. I wanted to tackle him, but I didn’t want the ball to come out.” “I shoulda tackled his a–,” 49ers safety Tashan Gipson said with a smile. “I’m like, ‘Why didn’t you go down?’ He’s like, ‘I wanted a pick-six like we talked about.’ Dre, that’s not …” Warner was interrupted as a waiting Greenlaw shouted his well-meaning intentions.
