Packers' Offensive Line: High Hopes, High Investment

General manager Brian Guterkunst decided against major changes this off season, sticking mostly with the same group for 2026. They lost left tackle Rashid Walker to Carolina and cut left guard Elton Jenkins who went to Cleveland, but no big free agent splashes came in. Instead, the Packers are turning to first round pick Jordan Morgan to step up at left tackle in his third year. They restructured Aaron Beng's contract at left guard to keep him after his injury plagued 2025. Betting a healthy season brings out the $77 million dollar talent they signed. At center, they extended Sean Ryan to a three-year deal after just eight starts there, locking him in as the guy. Second rounder Anthony Belton takes over at right guard, while Zach Tom returns healthy at right tackle following the surgery with no setback expected. Guterkunst poured cap space and high draft picks into this unit from first
