NFL Cracks Down on Sideline Confrontations, Demands Accountability

The NFL has issued a warning to all 32 teams after an altercation between Philadelphia Eagles head of security, Dom DiSandro, and San Francisco 49ers linebacker, Dre Greenlaw, on the sideline. The league reminded teams that non-player personnel should not engage in physical contact, taunting, or abusive language towards opposing players or officials. The memo stated that club personnel should allow coaches and officials to handle such situations, with appropriate penalties assessed. The NFL emphasized that it will enforce these rules and may impose fines, suspensions, or other accountability measures. DiSandro and Greenlaw were both ejected from the game, but have since made amends through intermediaries.
