When the Green Bay Packers signed guard Aaron Banks early in the 2025 free agency period, that move signaled that a position change was coming for one of the established players on the Packers’ offensive line. Banks has exclusively played guard in his NFL career, specifically left guard — a position primarily manned by Elgton Jenkins since his rookie year in 2019.
With starting center Josh Myers signing with the New York Jets a few days later, it became clear that Banks would slot in at one of the Packers’ starting guard spots. Jenkins, meanwhile, was the logical choice to move from guard to center instead of Sean Rhyan, particularly given Jenkins’ experience in college as a two-year starter at center.
