Ex-Green Bay Packers LB’s ‘Very Stupid’ Move Called Out by San Francisco 49ers’ George Kittle
Former Green Bay Packers linebacker De’Vondre Campbell found himself the topic of several headlines following Thursday night’s game between the San Francisco 49ers and the Los Angeles Rams in Santa Clara — and that’s for the wrong reason.
Campbell has become a hot topic after apparently refusing to play, as revealed following the Niners’ 12-6 loss to the Rams.

It’s a decision that he might already be regretting.
In any case, many have already called him out for his action, including no other than Niners star tight end George Kittle, who led San Francisco in the Rams game with 61 receiving yards on four catches and seven targets.
“It’s very dumb, very stupid, very immature…. I don’t see how you can do that to your teammates,” Kittle said following the contest, per Nick Wagoner of ESPN.
Campbell played three seasons with the Packers before signing a one-year deal worth $5 million with the 49ers last March. For many Green Bay fans, this latest controversy involving Campbell feels a bit familiar, given the shots he took at the Packers after he signed with the 49ers.
