Welcome to NFL News Today. Two minutes of updates that matter to NFL fans, hit subscribe and stay connected. The Green Bay Packers are already salary-capped compliant this off-season thanks in part to trading defensive and roshan gary to the Dallas Cowboys. Now they're releasing offensive linemen Elkton Jenkins which frees up $19,500,000 in cap space. Even though they didn't desperately need the room, this move hints at bigger plans. The team could dive into the trade market or chase a top free agent, possibly sacrificing a future draft pick in the process. Jenkins joined the Packers as a draft pick in 2019 and earned pro-bowl nods in 2020 and 22. He played every spot on the offensive line before shifting to center full-time last year, but a broken leg and torn ligament sidelined him for the season. Team needs point to the defensive line or cornerback, where options are thinning fast. The Addles Tereque will then stands out as a smart potential target on the free agent list.

Meanwhile, Green Bay is set with Sean Ryan locked in a starting center on a three-year deal. Their projected line for next season runs Jordan Morgan, Aaron Banks, Ryan Anthony Belton, and Zach Tom from left to right. This episode is brought to you by our sponsor. See the episode description.
