Greenard is slated to ink a four-year, $72 million contract with Minnesota, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Greenard put together a career year across 15 regular-season games in 2023, the final year of his deal with the Texans. With 52 tackles (36 solo), 15 tackles for a loss, 12.5 sacks and a forced fumble, Greenard earned himself a notable payday, now becoming a pillar of the Vikings' defense. Minnesota will have to hope Greenard can consistently replicate the production levels of his 2023 campaign, which isn't a sure thing considering that across the first three years of his career, he racked up 10.5 sacks combined. The arrival of Greenard could signal that Danielle Hunter won't ultimately re-sign with the Vikings.... See More ... See Less

Texans' Jonathan Greenard: Estimated as DNP on Tuesday
Greenard (ankle) was listed as a nonparticipant on Tuesday's estimated practice report. Greenard played just three defensive snaps in Week 16 before missing Week 17 with the ankle injury. With Greenard having 12.5 sacks on the season, his loss has been big for Houston. The Texans need to win their Saturday game against the Colts in order to lock in a playoff spot... See More ...

Texans' Jonathan Greenard: Can't practice Wednesday
Greenard (ankle) did not participate at practice Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. Greenard was forced out of Sunday's loss versus the Browns early due to an ankle injury which he's still tending to as of Houston's first practice of the new week. He'll likely need to return to practice Thursday or Friday to have a shot to play in Week 17.... See More ... See Less -
Texans' Jonathan Greenard: Won't return Sunday
Greenard (ankle) has been downgraded to out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Browns. Greenard was seen walking along the sidelines without a helmet after sustaining an ankle injury in the first half. The Texans will turn to backup defensive ends Jerry Hughes and Derek Barnett for the remainder of Sunday's contest with starters Greenard and Will Anderson (ankle) not on the field.... See More ...

Texans' Jonathan Greenard: Notches two sacks in loss
Greenard recorded six tackles (five solo), including two sacks, and a pass deflection during Houston's 30-6 loss to the Jets on Sunday. Greenard had one of his best performances of the season despite the loss, as he racked up multiple sacks for the third time. Through 13 games, the 2020 third-round pick has now compiled 46 tackles (34 solo), with 10 sacks, both of which are career highs for Greenard.... See More ... See Less -
Texans' Jonathan Greenard: Limited Wednesday
Greenard (shoulder) was limited in Wednesday's practice. A third-round pick in the 2020 Draft, Greenard has been a breakout player under first-year coach DeMeco Ryans. Greenard's playing time (67 percent of defensive snaps) is the highest of his career, and he's already racked up six sacks, 30 tackles (21 solo), 13 QB hits, eight TFLs and one batted pass. Greenard's six sacks are 3.5 more than his next closest teammate.... See More ... See Less -
Texans' Jonathan Greenard: Leads team in sacks
Greenard logged six tackles (three solo), including 2.5 sacks, during Houston's 15-13 loss to the Panthers on Sunday. Greenard had his most productive outing of the season, setting new bests for both tackles and sacks. The 26-year-old is on pace for a career year and is already just two sacks short of the career-high eight he recorded in 2021.... See More ... See Less -
Texans' Jonathan Greenard: Two sacks in win
Greenard recorded five tackles (four solo), including two sacks, in Sunday's 30-6 win over the Steelers. Greenard recorded two of the Texans' three sacks on the day. He played just 29 snaps on defense -- his lowest so far this season -- but made the most of his time out on the field. Greenard leads the team with three sacks and ranks fourth with 16 total tackles.... See More ... See Less -
Texans' Jonathan Greenard: Activated from injured reserve
The Texans activated Greenard (calf) from injured reserve Saturday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports. Greenard has been on injured reserve since suffering a calf injury during Week 4, but he'll presumably be active for Sunday's matchup against the Chiefs. Before his absence, the third-year defensive end totaled nine tackles and 1.5 sacks while playing a sizable role along Houston's defensive line.... See More ... See Less -
Texans' Jonathan Greenard: Returning to practice
The Texans designated Greenard (calf) to return from IR on Wednesday, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports. Greenard hasn't played since Week 4 due to a calf injury. He now begins a 21-day window to be evaluated at practice without counting against the active roster. Houston can activate Greenard at any point in that span, meaning he could be available as early as Sunday versus the Cowboys.... See More ... See Less -
Texans' Jonathan Greenard: Logs Week 2 sack
Greenard had a sack and two quarterback hits in Sunday's 16-9 loss to the Broncos in Week 2. Greenard played just 42 of 72 (58 percent) defensive snaps Sunday after getting a 67 percent share in Week 1. There was no reason given for the slight drop in snaps, but it could have been due to Houston's defense melting down in the fourth quarter and overtime against the Colts the previous week. Texans head coach Lovie Smith wanted to keep that unit fresh for the whole game. Greenard led the Texans with eight sacks in 12 games last season.... See More ... See Less -
Texans' Jonathan Greenard: Resumes practicing
Greenard (foot) is participating in Saturday's practice, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports. Greenard was expected to retake the field during the early stages of training camp, and it looks like his recovery from offseason foot surgery is exactly on track. The 25-year-old led Houston with eight sacks last season (12 appearances), and the team is reportedly hopeful he can make further strides during the 2022 campaign.... See More ... See Less -
Texans' Jonathan Greenard: Done for Week 18
Greenard (foot) will not return Sunday against the Titans. Greenard limped off the field after suffering the injury in the first quarter. With Greenard done for the day, Jordan Jenkins will likely see a boost in snaps.... See More ... See Less -
Texans' Jonathan Greenard: Ready to go Sunday
Greenard (foot) was cleared from the Texans' injury report Friday. Greenard was able to clear COVID protocols Thursday, but he popped up on the injury report with a foot issue and was limited in practice. Now healthy, Greenard should start on the edge of the defensive line Sunday against the 49ers.... See More ... See Less -
Texans' Jonathan Greenard: Enters COVID list
The Texans placed Greenard on the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday after he tested positive for the virus, Aaron Wilson of Sportstalk 790 Houston reports. Houston will now be without its top pass rusher for Sunday's game against the Jaguars. Jacob Martin and Jordan Jenkins should serve as Houston's starting defensive ends for the contest with Greenard out of the mix.... See More ... See Less -
Texans' Jonathan Greenard: Active for Week 13
Greenard (foot) is active for Sunday's contest against the Colts, Deepi Sidhu of the Texans' official site reports. Greenard was a limited participant at practice throughout the week, but he will be available for Week 13. The defensive end played through his injury last week and totaled two tackles (one solo), a sack and a forced fumble.... See More ... See Less -
Texans' Jonathan Greenard: Gets to quarterback twice
Greenard recorded six tackles and two sacks in Sunday's 31-3 loss to the Colts. Greenard took down Wentz on two occasions for losses of six and three yards. He now has four sacks on the season across four games while also forcing a fumble.... See More ... See Less -
Texans' Jonathan Greenard: Switching positions
Greenard was working out with the Texans' defensive linemen during Thursday's practice, Mark Berman of Fox 26 KRIV reports. Greenard was drafted as a linebacker out of Florida by the team last season, and he saw action in 13 games, recording 19 tackles (11 solo) and a sack over that span. Greenard is listed at 263 pounds, so he'll likely look to add some weight on this offseason in order to provide depth at defensive end heading into the 2021 season.... See More ... See Less -
Texans' Jonathan Greenard: Season-high snap count
Greenard had three tackles over a season-high 57 snaps in the Week 9 win over Jacksonville. Greenard, a 2020 third-round pick out of Florida, had played just 11 snaps before Week 9. He was given a more prominent role while the Texans managed a depleted linebacking corps. Both Dylan Cole (back) and Whitney Mercilus returned this week, but Jacob Martin (COVID-19) remains sidelined and Brennan Scarlett (forearm) was placed on injured reserve. Greenard could continue to see elevated playing time along with a role on special teams.... See More ... See Less -
Texans' Jonathan Greenard: Moving up depth chart
Greenard is expected to see an uptick in usage at outside linebacker for Sunday's game against Jacksonville, Deepi Sidhu of the Texans' official site reports. The Texans are all of the sudden feeling thin at linebacker, with Jacob Martin testing positive for the virus Thursday and both Dylan Cole and Whitney Mercilus being placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list after coming in close contact with Martin. With Kyle Emanuel dealing with a concussion, that leaves both Greenard and Brennan Scarlett as healthy outside linebackers. Despite suiting up in four games this season, Greenard has yet to record an IDP-relevant stat.... See More ... See Less
