Greenard put together a career year in 2023 with 52 tackles (36 solo), 15 tackles for a loss, 12.5 sacks and a forced fumble with the Texans. He then signed a four-year, $72 million contract with Minnesota. The Vikings will be counting on him as a key pass rusher on the edge and hope he can avoid the injuries that caused him to miss 17 games in his first three seasons. Read Past Outlooks

Greenard finished the 2024 season with 59 tackles (41 solo), including 18 total TFLs and 12.0 sacks, four forced fumbles and three pass breakups across 17 regular-season contests.
ANALYSIS
After Greenard broke out for 12.5 sacks with the Texans in 2023, the Vikings signed him to a four-year, $76 million deal as a free agent. Greenard answered with another outstanding season, setting new career highs in tackles, TFLs, forced fumbles and QB hits (22). He started all 17 games and was named to his first Pro Bowl. Greenard has finished in the top 10 in the NFL in sacks in back-to-back seasons and turns 28 years old in May.

NFL Game Previews: Ravens at Chargers Matchup

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
Greenard was limited to eight games in 2022 due to a calf injury and recorded just 1.5 sacks after leading the Texans the previous season with eight. The addition of Jerry Hughes (nine sacks) helped fill the void, and he's back along with 2023 third-overall pick Will Anderson. Greenard enters the fourth and final year of his rookie deal, and the end should be motivated for his next contract. He or Hughes will start at one end, but the playing time could tilt toward the 26-year-old Greenard, as the 35-year-old Hughes wore down in the second half.
Perhaps it’s not sustainable over a bigger workload, but Greenard was extremely productive on 398 snaps last year, generating eight sacks for a Texans team that was almost always trailing. A foot injury derailed the second half of Greenard’s 2021 season – he posted all eight of his sacks from Week 3 to Week 12, and he might have breezed past double-digit sacks if not for suffering the injury in Week 11.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
First Pro Bowl on horizon?
LBMinnesota Vikings
June 23, 2024
After a career year with the Texans in 2023, Greenard is in a good position to earn his first Pro Bowl nomination this season, Conor Orr of SI.com believes.
ANALYSIS
Entering his fifth pro campaign, Greenard is coming off a productive 2023, when he registered 52 tackles, including 12.5 sacks, two pass deflections and one forced fumble over 15 regular-season games. His sack total last season was tied for 10th in the league with Montez Sweat. Greenard's output last season earned him a four-year, $72 million contract with the Vikings in March, and Orr believes the 2020 third-round pick out of Florida will take his play up a level in the scheme of defensive coordinator Brian Flores.
