Availability
Jonathan Greenard has been traded from the Minnesota Vikings to the Philadelphia Eagles. The Vikings receive a third-round pick (98th overall) in the 2026 Draft and a third-round pick in the 2027 Draft. He was promptly signed to a four-year, $100 million deal by the Eagles.
Fantasy Impact
Greenard heads to the Eagles and will immediately provide a boost to the defensive front seven in Philadelphia. The former All-Pro is coming off of an injury-riddled season last year, as he appeared in only 12 games and registered 38 tackles, 10 tackles for a loss, and three sacks. However, in 2023 and 2024, Greenard combined for 24.5 sacks and 33 tackles for a loss in 32 starts with the Vikings. The veteran should be viewed as the replacement for Jaelan Phillips, who left for Carolina in free agency. Greenard will make an immediate impact in Philadelphia.
