Impact Campbell had played at least 62 percent of the 49ers' defensive snaps through the team's first 13 games while totaling 79 tackles, but he lost his starting job in Week 15 after Dre Greenlaw was cleared to make his season debut. With Greenlaw's night coming to an early end after he experienced soreness in his surgically repaired Achilles' tendon, the 49ers called upon Campbell to step in, but the 31-year-old declined to do so. While speaking to the media Friday, head coach Kyle Shanahan said that Campbell would no longer be part of the team due to his actions, but rather than waiving the veteran linebacker and allowing him to find an opportunity elsewhere before the end of the season, the team is instead planning on suspending him. Expect the transaction to be made official within the next couple of days, bringing an end to Campbell's tenure in San Francisco before he becomes a free agent this spring.

Unlikely to play again for SF San Francisco head coach Kyle Shanahan said Friday that Campbell, who refused to enter Thursday's loss to the Rams, isn't expected to play another snap with the 49ers, Nick Wagoner...
Impact Campbell's decision not to play when called upon Thursday drew the ire of multiple teammates who spoke out against the linebacker following the loss, so his presence in the locker room moving forward would likely be a distraction. The 49ers are still deciding how to best handle the situation, with Wagoner noting that while the most obvious direction would be to cut Campbell, the team could instead opt to suspend him without pay. Wagoner also explains that Campbell first refused to play Thursday after being asked to step in for Dee Winters, who was dealing with a neck injury. Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles instead entered for Winters, and if the latter isn't able to suit up Week 16 against Miami on Sunday, Dec. 22, Flannigan-Fowles would likely be in line for extended work on defense.

49ers coach Kyle Shanahan says LB De'Vondre Campbell refused to enter the game
Veteran LB De'Vondre Campbell refused to enter the game in the second half of the 49ers' 12-6 loss to the Rams on Thursday.DECEMBER 13
Future uncertain in SF Campbell refused to enter the game in Thursday's 12-6 loss to the Rams, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
Impact Campbell reportedly said that he didn't want to play during the third quarter and did not retake the field for the rest of the game. Coach Kyle Shanahan was non-commital after the contest regarding Campbell's future with the team, though a one-game suspension -- if not something more severe -- seems possible.

Logs seven tackles vs. Chicago Campbell finished Sunday's 38-13 win over the Bears with seven tackles (six solo).
Impact Campbell was the 49ers' leading tackler despite playing a season-low 33 snaps on defense, though that was due to San Francisco's large lead in the fourth quarter. Campbell has registered at least seven tackles in five of his last six games, and for the season he's up to 79 tackles (44 solo) and two pass defenses over 13 regular-season games.
DECEMBER 10 • ROTOWIRE
Modest production in blowout loss Campbell recorded five tackles (three solo) during Sunday's 35-10 loss at Buffalo.
Impact Despite playing a healthy 40 defensive snaps Sunday, Campbell failed to tally seven tackles for the first time since Week 7 versus the Chiefs. He's still narrowly on pace for his third 100-tackle season as a pro heading into a Week 14 tilt versus the Bears.
DECEMBER 3 • ROTOWIRE
Makes eight tackles Campbell finished with eight tackles (four solo) in Sunday's 38-10 loss to the Packers.
Impact The linebacker also played on more than 90 percent of the defensive snaps for the ninth time in 11 games. Campbell has 67 tackles (35 solo) and two pass breakups on the year.
NOVEMBER 26 • ROTOWIRE
Tallies seven stops Campbell compiled seven tackles (four solo) in the 49er's win Sunday versus Tampa Bay.
Impact Campbell finished second on the team in tackles behind Fred Warner' nine. Campbell has now racked up seven or more tackles in back-to-back games and for times total this season. He will look to produce again during San Francisco's Week 11 matchup versus Seattle.
NOVEMBER 12 • ROTOWIRE
Productive versus Dallas Campbell logged seven tackles (six solo) in San Francisco's win Sunday versus Dallas.
Impact Campbell had another productive outing Sunday as he finished second on the team in stops. He has now amassed 45 tackles (25 solo) across his first eight appearances this season and will look to add to those numbers Week 10 versus the Buccaneers, following the team's upcoming bye week.
OCTOBER 29 • ROTOWIRE
Season high nine tackles Campbell wrapped up nine tackles (two solo) with one pass defended in Sunday's 24-23 loss to the Cardinals.
Impact Campbell's nine tackles marked a new season high for the newly signed linebacker. The 30-year-old has posted modest numbers despite playing nearly every snap on defense for San Francisco this season. The 129-plus tackle seasons from Campbell's days in Atlanta and Green Bay seem like a distant memory, but there may still be some IDP value to be had for the starting linebacker.

Still tending to neck injury Campbell (neck) did not participate at practice Wednesday, Ryan Wood of USA Today reports.
Impact Campbell sat out of Sunday's win at Carolina due to a lingering neck issue, and now his availability for Week 17 appears to be in jeopardy. He'll likely need to return to practice Thursday or Friday to have a chance to play Sunday.

Missing Week 16 Campbell (neck) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Panthers.
Impact After a rough week where the All-Pro linebacker gave up 89 yards in coverage and missed two tackles, the Packers and Campbell came to an agreement, allowing the 30-year-old to rehab and get past his neck issue. With Campbell missing Week 16, expect Isaiah McDuffie to start alongside Quay Walker at inside linebacker.

Logs another limited session Campbell (neck) was a limited participant in Friday's practice, Ryan Wood of USA Today reports.
Impact The All-Pro linebacker was able to return to the field in Week 13, but he still seems to be nursing his neck injury, as he's been a limited participant in practice both Thursday and Friday. Campbell could very well carry an injury designation into Monday night unless he's able to record a full practice session Saturday.

Still working through injury Campbell (neck) was a limited participant during Thursday's practice.
Impact Campbell missed the team's Thanksgiving day win over the Lions with the injury but returned and played through it in Week 13 against the Chiefs. However, it appears the veteran linebacker is still not fully recovered as he remains limited on the practice field. He'll try and increase his practice activity Friday and Saturday before Green Bay clashes with the Giants on Monday.
