Jonathan Greenard News

Colts Interested in Jonathan Greenard

The Athletic's Alec Lewis reports that the Indianapolis Colts and Philadelphia Eagles are two teams that could trade for Minnesota Vikings linebacker Jonathan Greenard. Both the Colts and Eagles are in win-now mode, have explored the possibilities of signing Trey Hendrickson and Jaelan Phillips, and have invested in edge rushers in recent years. Greenard would also be a good fit with both defensive coordinators Lou Anarumo of the Colts and Vic Fangio of the Eagles. The Colts have young edge rusher Laiatu Latu, but the depth behind him is questionable, at best. Greenard had 12 sacks in 2024, but that production dipped to just three sacks in Minnesota in 2025. He was more effective as a run-stopper, but he only played in 10 games due to injuries. Before 2024, Greenard had never played all 17 games in a season. Lewis thinks that anything less than a Day 2 pick in exchange for Greenard will be a deal-breaker.

Eagles Interested in Trading for Jonathan Greenard

The Philadelphia Eagles are showing interest in Minnesota Vikings edge rusher Jonathan Greenard, according to Zach Berman of The Athletic. Berman notes that the team is monitoring his availability even after signing edge rusher Arnold Ebiketie. Greenard is coming off his sixth season in the NFL, during which he appeared in 12 games with three sacks, one forced fumble, and 59 tackles. It was a step backward for the veteran defender, who had combined for 24.5 total sacks between 2023 and 2024. Adding a player of his caliber would be huge for an Eagles defense that lost Jaelan Phillips and Joshua Uche in free agency. As Berman notes, any sort of Greenard trade would have its complications. Not only do the Eagles and Vikings need to agree on trade compensation, but a deal could also require Philadelphia to replace the pass rusher's existing contract with a new, long-term extension.

Vikings Open to Trading Jonathan Greenard

The Minnesota Vikings are "now open" to trading Pro Bowl edge rusher Jonathan Greenard, sources told Adam Schefter of ESPN. The Vikings would like to keep Greenard around, but they are also working through salary cap issues this year, which has led to trade conversations. The 28-year-old was a first-time Pro Bowler in 2024 in his first year in Minnesota, but he played in just 12 games in 2025 and ended the year on Injured Reserve due to a shoulder injury that required surgery. The former third-round selection by the Houston Texans in 2020 out of the University of Florida will have a $23.3 million salary cap hit if he stays on the Vikings' roster this season. Greenard had back-to-back seasons of 12 sacks in 2023 and 2024, only to record just three sacks last year. A bounce-back is possible in 2026 with better health, and he'll surely have suitors on the trade market.

Jonathan Greenard to Miss the Rest of the Season

Minnesota Vikings linebacker Jonathan Greenard (shoulder) will miss the rest of the season with a left-shoulder injury, according to head coach Kevin O'Connell. Greenard originally injured his left shoulder in Week 10 and missed two games. Greenard had been playing on a part-time basis in the last three games before aggravating the injury in the 34-26 Sunday night win over the hosting Dallas Cowboys. He will undergo surgery and is expected to be at full strength for the start of next season. The 28-year-old pass-rusher was limited to 12 games this year due to his shoulder injury, and he will finish with three sacks while ranking fifth in the league with a 13.5% pressure rate. Second-year linebacker Dallas Turner should have a full-time role in Minnesota for the final three games with Greenard out. Greenard signed a four-year, $72 million contract in 2024 and recorded 12 sacks in 17 games to earn Pro Bowl honors.

Jonathan Greenard Remains Sidelined for Week 12

Minnesota Vikings edge rusher Jonathan Greenard (shoulder) is officially inactive for Sunday's Week 12 contest against the Green Bay Packers. He had been listed as questionable after logging a pair of limited practice sessions. The 28-year-old Florida product will ultimately miss his second consecutive game, leaving a large void within Minnesota's defensive front. After all, he had 31 tackles, two sacks, and one forced fumble through his first nine contests this year. Dallas Turner is expected to earn the start in Greenard's absence. Turner was a productive fill-in last week, amassing seven tackles and one sack.

Vikings Believe Jonathan Greenard Avoided Long-Term Injury

The Minnesota Vikings believe edge rusher Jonathan Greenard (shoulder) avoided a serious injury during a Week 10 game against Baltimore, according to head coach Kevin O'Connell. The 2024 Pro Bowler departed the game against the Ravens and did not return, but it appears as if he will have a chance to play as early as this week. O'Connell said Greenard is on track to return to practice, though it seems likely he will carry an injury designation when the team releases its first injury report of the week on Wednesday. Managers in IDP leagues can hold for now, but should make alternate plans for Week 11 in case the injury prevents Greenard from suiting up against the Chicago Bears.

Jonathan Greenard Signing Four-Year Deal With Vikings

Free-agent edge rusher Jonathan Greenard is signing a four-year, $76 million deal that includes $42 million guaranteed with the Minnesota Vikings. The 26-year-old broke out with the Houston Texans last season, posting career-highs in tackles (52), sacks (12.5), and run-stuffs (nine). The Vikings are expected to lose Danielle Hunter, so Greenard helps make up for the potential departure. The Vikings could be headed into rebuild mode after the loss of franchise quarterback Kirk Cousins.

Jonathan Greenard Out Against Titans

Houston Texans defensive end Jonathan Greenard (ankle) has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Tennessee Titans. Greenard injured his ankle in last week's matchup against the Cleveland Browns. The injury took him out of that contest early and forced him to miss practice all week. The 26-year-old has 56 tackles on the season and leads the Texans with 12.5 sacks. The team will certainly miss his efforts in Week 17, as he had a great showing when the teams last faced off in Week 15, recording six tackles, 2.5 sacks, and forcing a fumble. Worse yet, Houston's remaining starters on the defensive line are all listed as questionable ahead of the must-win rematch.

Jonathan Greenard Going On Injured Reserve

Houston Texans top pass-rushing defensive end Jonathan Greenard (calf) is going on Injured Reserve after he injured his calf in practice this week, according to a source. Greenard is expected to return to the team in four to six weeks. The 25-year-old already missed the Week 5 game and wasn't ready to return this weekend after resting up during last week's bye. The third-year pass-rusher had 1.5 sacks, nine tackles (six solo), five tackles for loss and three QB hits in his four games played before land on Injured Reserve. It's a blow to Houston's defensive line and their pass rush, which is good news for the Las Vegas Raiders, who are also coming off a bye last week.

Jonathan Greenard, Cre'Von LeBlanc Ruled Out For Texans

Houston Texans defensive lineman Jonathan Greenard (foot) and defensive back Cre'Von LeBlanc (illness) have both been ruled out for Week 11 against the Tennessee Titans after coming into the game with questionable tags. The Texans defense will also be without linebacker Hardy Nickerson (concussion). Houston's defense/special teams enters Week 11 play as the No. 18 defensive unit in overall fantasy points, and fantasy managers have plenty of better options at their disposal than the Texans, even against a Titans offense that remains without running back Derrick Henry (foot).
