49ers superstar says he has 'unspoken language' with fellow linebacker

One San Francisco 49ers linebacker is thrilled to reunite with another who returned to the team in free agency after a year away.

The San Francisco 49ers have made some key acquisitions this offseason, especially with two big moves on the defensive side of the ball, as they traded for defensive lineman Osa Odighizuwa and brought back linebacker Dre Greenlaw. While Odighizuwa is joining San Francisco's defense for the first time and will certainly make an impact, Greenlaw's returning to the team that he spent his first six seasons with after a one-year stay with the Denver Broncos. Speaking with Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp on his own podcast , 49ers linebacker Fred Warner shared his thoughts on Greenlaw signing with San Francisco, and he seems happy.

"Yeah, no, it's bad, bro. It's bad for you. Bad for old Matthew [Stafford], man.

Bad for everybody going forward," Warner said. "Because it's different when you've got such a rapport and a connection with somebody. Every single time I played with Dre for the seven years we played together, it was an unspoken language on the field where I don't have to turn to him and be like, 'Hey, Dre.

Look for this... ' It's just like it was unspoken. We're moving together in unison, and it was just so easy because we just had this great vibe with one another on and off the field.
