Analysts Project Packers O-Line Overhaul, Including Jenkins Cut and Walker Exit

Cap pressure alongside recent injuries drives predictions of an offensive line overhaul.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets forecast that Green Bay will part with starters Elgton Jenkins and Rasheed Walker, with younger, lower-cost options Jordan Morgan, Sean Rhyan and Anthony Belton identified as replacements.
  • Over The Cap figures cited in reports indicate cutting Jenkins could save roughly $19.5 million with about a $4.8 million dead-cap charge.
  • Walker is widely expected to reach free agency with projections of a substantial multi-year deal, making a return to Green Bay unlikely given recent market prices for starting left tackles.
  • Sportsnaut adds that edge rusher Rashan Gary is a potential cap casualty, estimating about $11 million in 2026 cap relief and $31.02 million in 2027 if released.
  • Receiver Romeo Doubs is projected to draw offers in the $12–$14 million per year range, with Green Bay potentially letting him leave and recouping a 2027 fifth-round compensatory pick.
