In understated Corey Linsley, Packers have ‘great comfort’ knowing their line is in good hands

Center Corey Linsley has not missed a start since 2016.

GREEN BAY — There doesn’t appear to be an official Corey Linsley Fan Club, but if there was, his father, Jim, would surely be the president.

The Green Bay Packers veteran center’s dad rarely posts any of his own thoughts on his Twitter account, opting instead to use it for sharing others’ posts. Preferably, ones that point out how awesome his son is playing in the middle of the Packers’ offensive line.

And so, it wasn’t exactly surprising when ol’ Jim passed along a Tweet from Pro Football Focus earlier this month — one in which the analytics and analysis site rated his son as the highest-graded pass-protecting center in the NFL.
