Jonathan Greenard Starts Eagles Camp on PUP List

Eagles say the designation protects his rehab and aims to preserve his availability for the regular season.

Overview

  • The Eagles announced Wednesday that Pro Bowl edge rusher Jonathan Greenard will begin training camp on the active Physically Unable to Perform list after suffering a pectoral strain while lifting.
  • Active/PUP allows Greenard to attend team meetings and complete rehabilitation but bars him from on-field practice until he is medically cleared to return.
  • Philadelphia traded two third-round picks for Greenard in April and signed him to a near–$98 million, multi-year deal, making his recovery a priority for the team’s pass-rush plans.
  • Greenard’s pectoral issue is reported as unrelated to the shoulder surgery that ended his 2025 season and the Eagles do not currently view his regular-season availability as in jeopardy.
  • His absence hands extra early practice reps to Jalyx Hunt, Nolan Smith, Arnold Ebiketie and A.J. Epenesa and delays Greenard’s timing work in Vic Fangio’s pass-rush scheme, a storyline to monitor as camp progresses.
