Eagles Trade for Greenard, Boost Pass Rush

About this episode

The Eagles bolstered their pass rush by trading for edge rusher Jonathan Greenard from the Vikings, securing him with a four-year, $100 million extension. Greenard, who had double-digit sacks in the previous two seasons, will join Hunt, Smith, Graham, and Ebiketie to strengthen the defense. This move comes after missing out on Jalyx Phillips in free agency and follows the teams offensive picks of Biletnikoff winner Makai Lemon and Mackey Award tight end Stowers.

It's April 25th. This is NFL News Today, powered by AI, your Gridiron update. I'm Cory with the story. The Eagles just shook up Draftknife by trading for Ed Rush or Jonathan Greenert from the Minnesota Vikings right after snagging Vanderbilt tight and Eli Stowers in the second round. They locked him in with a 4-year, $100 million extension, sending their 98th overall pick this year, a compensatory one, plus a third-rounder next year to the Vikings who flipped back a 2026-7th rounder. Greenert turns 29 next month and battled a shoulder injury last season that needed surgery, limiting him to 3-sacks in 12 games, but he cranked out double digits the two years before that. He's a strong backup plan after they missed on Jelix Phillips in Free Agency, and now he joins Hunt, who led Philly with 6.5 sacks, plus. Nolan Smith, Brandon Graham, and new guys like Arnold Ebbikelli to boost that pass rush. With their first two picks going to Beletnikov winner, Makai Lemon and Mackie Award-Titon

Stowers on offense, this move arms Vick Fangio's defense for a real turnaround.
