De’Vondre Campbell is suspended by the 49ers for the final three games of the regular season after refusing to enter Thursday’s loss to the Los Angeles Rams, according to multiple reports on Monday morning.

Campbell opted not to take the field when San Francisco beckoned him to sub for Dre Greenlaw, who replaced Campbell in the starting lineup in his first game back from a torn Achilles in the Super Bowl.

Campbell started 12 of the first 13 games in 2024 and made 79 tackles. Campbell signed a one-year, $5 million contract in free agency prior to the season. While suspended, he will not be paid and essentially forfeits three game checks.

49ers coach Kyle Shanahan said the 31-year-old Campbell told coaches “he didn’t want to play today” when asked to enter the game in the third quarter against the Rams. Greenlaw needed to be removed from the game because of foot soreness.

“I’ve never been around someone who quits on their team, and I hope I’m never around a guy like that again,” 49ers tight end George Kittle said after the game

Campbell was not in the locker room when the game ended but all of his belongings remained at his assigned space at Levi’s Stadium.

San Francisco (6-8) is currently outside of a postseason berth.
