Summary

  • Jonathan Greenard was placed on the Physically Unable to Perform list before Philadelphia’s first 2026 training-camp practice after suffering a pectoral strain while lifting.
  • The Eagles said the injury is not expected to be a long-term issue, softening an early setback to one of their biggest offseason additions.
  • Philadelphia acquired the 29-year-old edge rusher in an April 24 trade for 2026 and 2027 third-round picks, then signed him to a four-year deal reported at $98 million to $100 million.
  • Greenard had three sacks in 12 games last season while limited by injury, after posting 12 sacks in each of the previous two years.
  • His absence adds uncertainty at edge as camp opens, with veteran Brandon Graham among the Eagles’ options while roster battles also continue at safety and backup quarterback.
