It was a brief stint, but Kevin Greene made an impact on the 1997 San Francisco 49ers.
Later this summer, it will be a big day for San Francisco 49ers fans at the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio. Eddie DeBartolo will finally be inducted, but there is another player with a 49ers connection. Outside linebacker/defensive end Kevin Greene spent the 1997 season with the 49ers. In that season he had 10.5 sacks for a team that advanced to the conference championship round of the NFL playoffs.
It was a strong year for Greene, but it was also just one year in a 15-year career.
