Offensive lineman Elgton Jenkins spent some time playing at guard in last week’s victory over the Minnesota Vikings, which seemed to show the Green Bay Packers were considering making a change at left guard.
Lane Taylor — who started the opening two games of the season at left guard — has been ruled out of Sunday’s game due to a biceps injury, meaning Jenkins will get the opportunity to start.
When Taylor returns from injury, it’s possible he’ll be the main backup at guard with Jenkins becoming the full-time starter. It’s an important game on Sunday for the rookie, and it won’t be easy against a talented Broncos defense.
