De’Vondre Campbell’s refusal to participate in the 49ers’ Week 15 loss to the Los Angeles Rams resulted in a suspension for conduct detrimental to the team, but how much did that decision cost the veteran linebacker?
Campbell’s three-game suspension will cost him $261,666 in salary and active bonus per game. The 49ers also may be able to recoup $111,666 of the $3.3 million signing bonus that Campbell paid out when he joined San Francisco in the offseason.

Campbell, who spent the last three seasons with the Green Bay Packers, signed a one-year, $5 million contract with the 49ers, who desperately needed linebacker quality while Dre Greenlaw recovered from an Achilles tendon injury.
Campbell appeared in 13 games for the 49ers and totaled 79 tackles and three tackles for a loss during the 2024 season.
