Eagles’ Jonathan Greenard faces extended recovery from pectoral injury

Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Jonathan Greenard remains several weeks away from returning to practice due to a pectoral injury, according to defensive coordinator Vic Fangio. Greenard was placed on the physically unable to perform list after suffering the injury during weightlifting before training camp. Although not expected to jeopardize his availability for the regular season, the delay is hindering his ability to bond with new teammates. The Eagles invested two third-round draft picks and signed Greenard to a four-year, $100 million contract extension, further emphasizing their commitment to strengthening their defense. The team's focus now shifts to ensuring he is fully recovered before returning.
