Packers GM Brian Gutekunst says Elgton Jenkins will move from guard to center next season

PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) — Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst says two-time Pro Bowl left guard Elgton Jenkins is expected to move over to center to make room for Aaron Banks on the offensive line.

“He’s got a chance to be an All-Pro center,” Gutekunst told reporters Monday during the NFL owners meetings.

Banks, a guard who started 43 games for the San Francisco 49ers over the past three seasons, signed with the Packers in free agency.

Green Bay has a hole to fill at center after 2021 second-round pick Josh Myers joined the New York Jets last month.
