EAGAN, Minn. — Jonathan Greenard’s 2025 season has come to an end.
The outside linebacker has battled through a shoulder injury but will undergo surgery after reaggravating it at Dallas Sunday night, Vikings Head Coach O’Connell announced Monday.
“It’s a pretty standard kind of shoulder injury that should allow him to have a pretty routine procedure and be back on his way to being 100% and ready to roll,” O’Connell said. “It just feels like the best time to do that now.
“As a captain and a leader on our team, he’s had a huge impact both on the field — and I thought he played one of his best games yesterday, before he reaggravated that shoulder,” O’Connell added. “But what he’s meant to me and our team and what we’re able to do as a football team, specifically these last two weeks, J.G. and his leadership and his commitment to being a foundational player for us as a football team has been on full display.”
