Jonathan Greenard turned a career year into a very nice payday in free agency this offseason.
The edge-rusher agreed to a deal with the Minnesota Vikings on Monday, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero, taking one of the better pass-rushers off the market.
The 26-year-old registered 12.5 sacks, 52 tackles (15 for loss), 22 quarterback hits, two passes defensed and a forced fumble in 15 games this past season for the Houston Texans, helping the team return to the playoffs.
It was the 2020 third-round pick's first year with double-digit sacks, though he did post a solid eight sacks in the 2021 campaign.
