While some may have possessed the necessary skills to play tackle, guard or center, nobody has been put to the test quite like
Elgton Jenkins through the first 10 games of the 2020 season.
The former second-round pick currently leads the Packers with 664 offensive snaps played. Most of that work has come at his primary position of left guard, but he also made a spot start at right tackle in Green Bay's opener in Minnesota and filled in at left tackle in the second half against San Francisco on Nov. 5.
This past Sunday, after center Corey Linsley was forced from the game with a back injury after only 10 plays, the
Packers asked Jenkins to slide back to center – a position he hadn't played meaningful snaps at since his senior year at Mississippi State.
"Elgton, I mean the fact that he can anywhere on the offensive line is absolutely incredible," Head Coach Matt LaFleur said. "I've never been around somebody like that who has that ability."
