Questions Answered: Top FA Target for Vikings in 2025, Jonathan Greenard’s 1st Year, Will Reichard

The head coach of the Vikings’ next opponent, Brian Callahan of the Tennessee Titans, had only positives to say about Greenard this week. Callahan called Greenard “the most underrated edge player in football right now” and said, “He’s playing fantastic. I think he’s really, really good.”

Callahan also told reporters why Minnesota’s defense ranks tops in the sport, in his opinion: “One, good players. That’s the first thing: those guys do a really good job on defense, just the personnel in general. They’ve got a collection of veteran players that are smart. They can handle the scheme. They’re really intelligent, between Stephon Gilmore and Harrison Smith. It’s a good group. Ivan Pace really jumps off the tape, particularly as a blitzer; he’s a really good player. Good players is the starting point.”

Greenard over Hunter was a marvelous decision. He’s also younger.

Q: Will there be a kicker controversy if Parker Romo stays perfect? Will he maybe take Will Reichard’s job?
