SID HARTMAN

Vikings linebacker Chad Greenway said that while he’s not quite ready to say he is retiring after this season, he is treating it as though this will be his final year in the NFL.

“I was told by a friend to never guarantee that you’re going to retire,” said Greenway, the No. 17 overall pick in the 2006 draft out of Iowa. “I’m treating this season like it’s my last. I’m continuing with the mentality to grind hard and be a leader for this group. I really want to find a role and a niche with this team where I can help them win and play a pivotal role at the same time.
