Vikings' Jonathan Greenard: Still dealing with shoulder injury
Greenard (shoulder) was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice.
Greenard returned to the lineup last week after missing the previous two games with a shoulder injury, but he played just 15 defensive snaps, his lowest total of the year. It's possible that this will be a lingering issue, which could keep him on a snap count once again in Week 14 versus the Commanders.

Vikings' Jonathan Greenard: Good to go Week 13
Greenard (shoulder) is active for Sunday's game against the Seahawks.
Greenard has been cleared to return Sunday from a two-game absence due to a shoulder injury, which means Dallas Turner will likely revert to a rotational role at edge rusher. Prior to his injury, Greenard accumulated 31 tackles (19 solo), including 2.0 sacks, three pass defenses and one forced fumble across nine regular-season games.

Vikings' Jonathan Greenard: On track to play Sunday
Greenard (shoulder) remains listed as questionable but is expected to play Sunday in Seattle, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Greenard took a designation into the weekend after he was a limited participant in practice Wednesday through Friday, but he looks like he's on track to be cleared ahead of Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff. After tallying at least 12.0 sacks in both of the previous two seasons, Greenard has been limited to just two through nine appearances with Minnesota in 2025.

Vikings' Jonathan Greenard: Questionable for Sunday
Greenard (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Seahawks.
Greenard logged limited practices throughout the week, making five consecutive limited practices since he left the Week 10 game against the Ravens with a shoulder injury. The consistent stringing together of practices means there is a good chance the weakside linebacker is able to suit up for Sunday's game. If Greenard can't go, Dallas Turner is in line for the same uptick in defensive snaps that he saw in Week 11 and Week 12.

Vikings' Jonathan Greenard: Inactive versus Green Bay
Greenard (shoulder) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Packers.
As expected, Greenard has been ruled out for the Vikings' critical divisional showdown after drawing a questionable tag following back-to-back limited sessions to end Week 12 prep. This will be the star pass rusher's second straight absence, allowing Dallas Turner to draw another start opposite Andrew Van Ginkel again.

Vikings' Jonathan Greenard: Not expected to play
Greenard (shoulder) is not expected to be active for Sunday's NFC North clash against the Packers, Matt Zenitz of CBSSports.com reports.
Greenard drew the questionable tag for Sunday's game after ending the week with back-to-back limited practices, but it appears the 2020 third-rounder will miss a second consecutive game due to a shoulder injury.

Vikings' Jonathan Greenard: Won't play Sunday
Greenard (shoulder) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Bears, Dane Mizutani of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.
The 28-year-old sustained a shoulder injury in the Vikings' Week 10 loss to the Ravens and is now in line to miss his first game of the season Sunday. Greenard is an integral part of Minnesota's defense, recording 31 total tackles, including 2.0 sacks, and three passes defended over nine appearances this season.
