Dealt to Philadelphia
The Eagles have traded a third-round pick in the 2026 NFL Draft as well as a 2027 third-round pick to Minnesota in exchange for Greenard (shoulder) and the 244th overall pick of this year's draft, Lindsey Young of the Vikings' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Greenard also is signing a four-year extension worth up to $100 million with his new team, per NFL reporter Jordan Schultz. The veteran is coming off a lackluster 2025 campaign in which he recorded just 38 tackles (19 solo), including 3.0 sacks, across 12 regular-season appearances, but he totaled 24.5 sacks across the 2023 and 2024 seasons and will now be a prime bounceback candidate under Philadelphia defensive coordinator Vic Fangio. Greenard is recovering from season-ending shoulder surgery undergone in December.

Greenard's career got off to a mixed start across his first three years in Houston, but after breaking out with 12.5 sacks in 2023 with the Texans he parlayed his way into a massive multi-year deal with Minnesota, then repeated with 12.0 sacks for the Vikings last season. With any concerns about Greenard being a one-year wonder having been put to rest, he looks like a safe bet to continue dancing with double-digit sacks as long as defensive coordinator Brian Flores remains with the Vikings.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Moved to Eagles, inks extension
Greenard was traded from the Vikings to the Eagles on Friday and signed a four-year, $100 million extension with Philadelphia, Tim McManus, Kevin Seifert and Adam Schefter of ESPN report.
ANALYSIS
Philadelphia gave up third-round picks in this year's and next year's drafts in exchange for the veteran linebacker. The new deal includes $50 million guaranteed and comes on the heels of a 2025 season cut short by a shoulder injury for which Greenard required surgery. However, over the prior two seasons, the 2020 third-round pick flashed the ceiling that made him appealing to an Eagles squad that's aimed to fortify its defense this offseason, as he recorded 24.5 sacks over the 2023 and 2024 campaigns.
