Explaining the Elgton Jenkins situation

Elgton Jenkins has been the Green Bay Packers’ top offensive lineman since David Bakhtiari was released following the 2023 season, playing in every offensive line position except right guard.

Jenkins, who primarily manned the left guard spot last season, will enter 2025 playing center after the Packers signed Aaron Banks to a free agent deal in the offseason. However, Jenkins was reportedly seeking an adjustment to his current four-year, $68 million contract, which he signed late in the 2022 season.

According to a story Aug. 2 from Pro Football Rumors, Jenkins is owed $32.8 million in his final two years on his deal.
