Greenlaw left Saturday’s game against Alabama in the first quarter and was spotted on crutches wearing walking boot in the second quarter. ESPN sideline reporter Holly Rowe reported Greenlaw claimed to hear a “pop” from his leg while attempting to make a play.
After the game, the linebacker revealed he was scheduled to have surgery on Monday, which led many to think his season would be over.
Surgery Monday and it's back to work after that…

Instead, the linebacker could make his return during the Razorbacks’ stretch of games against Florida (Nov. 5), LSU (Nov. 12) and Mississippi State (Nov. 19).
Greenlaw started in the past 16 games for Arkansas and leads the team with 35 tackles. He recorded 95 tackles and was an All-SEC Freshman selection in 2015.
