Packers make $20 million saving with inevitable Elgton Jenkins decision
Green Bay Packers center Elgton Jenkins | Mark J. Rebilas-Imagn ImagesThe writing was on the wall. Now, it's confirmed: The Green Bay Packers are moving on from Elgton Jenkins.
According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the Packers are releasing the two-time Pro Bowler. Unlike with Rashan Gary, who they sent to the Dallas Cowboys for a fourth-round pick earlier in the day, the Packers couldn't find a trade partner for Jenkins and have moved on.
Releasing Jenkins is the biggest cap-saving move they could've made, creating $19.53 million immediately.
