It's March 9th for the NFL. Let's get into it. Follow and subscribe for more teen news every day. The Green Bay Packers are parting ways with veteran offensive lineman Elton Jenkins. The 30-year-old was a key part of their line, drafted in the second round of the 2019 draft. They shifted Jenkins to center to open the 2025 season. But in November, he suffered a season ending lower leg fracture along with ligament damage. That injury opened the door for Sean Ryan, who stepped in at center. The Packers just locked him up with a three-year contract extension. Releasing Jenkins clears $19,530,000 in cap space for 2026. It comes with a $4,800,000 dead cap hit in the final year of his deal. Over his career, the two-time pro-buller played in 96 gains with 94 stars for Green Bay. Now he's hitting free agency as they reshape the line. Remember for this D&N episode comes from our sponsor.
