As of now, the Green Bay Packers and offensive lineman Elgton Jenkins are still locked into a hold-in situation. While Jenkins did report to mandatory minicamp last month, he was a non-participant in practice and was dressed down. If he held out and simply didn’t report to Green Bay, Jenkins would have been fined north of $100,000, but this non-participant hold-in strategy allows him to avoid fines while also not hitting the practice field.
In training camp, which begins this week, the fines for a holdout increase to $50,000 per day. These are non-waivable fines, per the NFL’s newest collective bargaining agreement signed in 2020.
