Greenidge played collegiately at Villanova. He was a four-year starter at offensive tackle and was named to the 2nd Team All-Colonial Athletic Association team his final two years.

New Orleans signed Greenidge as an undrafted rookie in 2019. He spent the entire season on the practice squad as a rookie. After a strong training camp in 2020, he was promoted to the active roster.

Greenidge appeared in 15 games and two postseason contests as a reserve tackle for the Saints in 2020. He played 47 offensive snaps over five games and blocked for extra point and field goal units.

Greenidge, 24, missed the 2021 season after a season-ending arm injury in training camp.

A 6’4” and 335-Lb. lineman, Greenidge can play either tackle spot and can also slide inside to guard. He'll compete for a spot on a New Orleans offensive line that is expected to lose LT Terron Armstead in free agency.
