ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports the Eagles have discussed the possibility of trading for Vikings LB Jonathan Greenard.

20 April 2026

The last we heard about Greenard was at the league’s winter meetings, when head coach Kevin O’Connell said he expected Greenard to be part of the team in 2026. Greenard broke out for a 12-sack season in 2024 but was held to just three sacks over 12 games last season while totaling 38 tackles and 10 TFLs. He remains under contract through 2027, and the Vikings are reportedly looking for a high-end Day 2 draft pick in exchange for his services. After losing EDGE Jaelan Phillips to the Panthers in free agency earlier this offseason, the Eagles have a need to add another pass-rusher to a defense that totaled 42 sacks last season. Schefter reports trade discussions between the two sides “have lost steam in recent weeks,” but that the two sides could revisit those discussions during this week’s draft.
