Greenlaw making an impact

FAYETTEVILLE -- Dre Greenlaw made the final tackle of the 100th season of the NFL regular season last Sunday night in front of a national television audience.

It earned the 6-2, 227-pounder a place in San Francisco 49ers lore.

Greenlaw's stonewall of a tackle on Seattle tight end Jacob Hollister on about the 1-inch line preserved San Francisco's 26-21 victory over the Seahawks and clinched the top playoff seed in the NFC for the 49ers.

It was a strong statement to end the NFL's 100th regular season.

"It's crazy when you put it like that," said Greenlaw, the former standout linebacker at Fayetteville High School and the University of Arkansas.
