Texans LB Azeez Al-Shaair left Sunday's win over the Patriots with a knee injury. HC Demeco Ryans said afterward that Al-Shaair tried to return but couldn't and that he's "getting evaluated." That means both LB starters are dealing with injuries this week. (Henry To'oTo'o has a concussion.) And LB Christian Harris has yet to come off IR for his calf injury. Neville Hewitt filled in for Al-Shaair against New England and would start in his place if he can't go. Jake Hansen looks like the next man up if To'oTo'o is out and Harris isn't ready. We'll watch for updates on the whole crew this week.
Niners LB Dre Greenlaw left Sunday's loss to the Chiefs with a right-calf injury and did not return. If he misses further time, the snaps would likely go to Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles.

Niners LB Dre Greenlaw needs surgery for the groin injury he suffered in Sunday's win over the Lions. ESPN's Nick Wagoner reports that Greenlaw is expected to "be out into November before being reassessed." Although the 49ers hope to get him back this season, that timeline means you can go ahead and drop Greenlaw in nearly all IDP redraft leagues. Azeez Al-Shaair will fill in as the #2 LB alongside Fred Warner. Al-Shaair tallied 7 tackles, 2 tackles for loss and 2 passes defensed in Week 1.
