GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Elgton Jenkins doesn't necessarily have a problem with moving to center full time, but the two-time Pro Bowl left guard would like the Green Bay Packers to make it more financially stable for him to do so.
That's the reason he has so far stayed away from the offseason workouts, multiple sources told ESPN.
Jenkins has two years left on a four-year, $68 million contract extension he signed in December of 2022. It was designed to pay him as if he were staying at guard and also remaining competitive if he moved to the higher-priced tackle position. The average of $17 million would make him among the highest-paid centers in the league.
