Suspended indefinitely, cleaned out his locker, apparently going to check into rehab.

Good for Aldon Smith, entering a treatment facility after Friday's arrest It's what the team wanted. Couldn't force him. Had to be voluntary

#49ers will place Aldon Smith on the non-football injury list Monday or Tuesday, per source, as soon as he registers at treatment facility
Bay Area News is saying the team suspended him too but I guess that might not be true.
Voluntary makes more sense, why let a guy play and then suspend him indefinitely after the game when you knew the details before the game.
One of the reports said he still had his foot on the accelerator after he hit the tree so he pretty clearly has a problem.
It's so ridiculous that the 9ers allowed him to play today... Yea - I'm certain if any of us had put up a rap sheet like his, that we would still be able to call our own shots and make our own rules... Pathetic...
Apparently the league doesn't like it if the team pre-empts their power. They've made that clear in the past to the teams that have suspended players before the Commissioner could go through the process and determine the appropriate punishment.

I believe there are implications with the players union too.
Even though he plays for our rival, I hope he gets his life back on track. He's got too much talent to let it all go out to waste.
Mods edit the thread title to something that isn't misleading.
Aside from the fact that the one asking for the change knows what it is about, the title isn't intentionally misleading and is true.What exactly is misleading?

But i guess I can see where someone would see out in SF and think it means he's released.
