Greenlaw bodyslammed Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith to the ground after the latter scampered for a 13-yard catch. The Eagles sideline took exception to Greenlaw’s action, specifically security director Dom
DiSandro. Greenlaw and DiSandro shared words before the former reached out with his fist toward DiSandro. Greenlaw got ejected, while DiSandro also received the boot. However, DiSandro will not have sideline access in their team’s Week 14 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys.
