Disappointing Packers: Elgton Jenkins

Elgton Jenkins is a two-time Pro Bowler who is supposed to be in the prime of his career. Unfortunately, he’s gotten off to a slow start to the 2023 NFL season.

Injuries have been a theme for him, and he’s only played in two-and-a-half games this season. However, he hasn’t played up to his standards even when he has been on the field. He’s given up four pressures, including three against the Raiders alone. His run-blocking has also been below average.
