Packers veteran makes ‘confident' claim despite long-term financial concerns
This offseason, the Green Bay Packers decided for veteran offensive lineman Elgton Jenkins to switch from left guard to center. With the Packers gearing up for the 2025 NFL season, Jenkins spoke about the change he's adapting to during camp and preseason. Green Bay signed former 49ers left guard Aaron Banks to a four-year, $77 million deal in free agency, prompting Jenkins to move to center. Nonetheless, with the change in position comes the financial concerns, as it could be seen as a center for the foreseeable future rather than a left guard. Over the Cap's (h/t The Athletic) list of the 10 highest-paid players at each position shows that top left guards average $14.7 million annually, while centers come in at $11.25 million. As a result, it came as no surprise when Jenkins said on Monday that he considered how changing positions could affect him financially during the offseason. Nonetheless, with the 2025 NFL season around the corner, the 29-year-old is putting the team first and putting his financial concerns on hold for now. MORE:Packers' $5 million former third-rounder predicted to be 'the guy' for Jordan Love 'Right now, I'm just focused on the season going forward, just being able to perform for the team and just getting our O-line right, our offense right, so we can be better this year than we were last year,' Jenkins said. 'Right now, I'm not even thinking about that. … Been playing this game for 20-some years, seven years in the league. I'm very confident in my ability and what I can do. The financial side, I know that's going to come.' Jenkins doesn't have to worry about his contract situation just yet; he's signed with the Packers through 2026. Still, it makes sense that he's thinking about his long-term financial future. He'll be 32 when he hits free agency in 2027, and if he stays healthy, that next deal could be the last big contract of his career. It will be interesting to see how this all plays out long-term, but for now, it's all about helping the Packers win the AFC North and make a deep playoff run.

Cleveland Browns Training Camp Recap: Day 5 - Full pads & QB efficiency
Day 5 of Cleveland Browns training camp took place on Monday. Here is our recap of the session. Cleveland Browns Training Camp Report - Day 5 (7/28/25) 1. Pads and QB Update: The first padded practice of the year took place on Monday, and there were some other changes too. Gone is the format of having the quarterbacks break down into two groups on two fields. Also, the hamstring injury to QB Kenny Pickett means that for the moment, there are more reps for the other three guys. That includes QB Joe Flacco taking all of the first-team reps. 2. Progress for Ford: RB Jerome Ford is very close to returning to practice in full. He participated in some individual work on Monday, so I'd expect him to be in team drills this week. 3. Diontae Johnson With Some Snags: As WR David Bell and WR Michael Woods continue to miss time, WR Diontae Johnson is taking advantage. It doesn't hurt when he makes a snag like this: 4. Punt Return Order: According to Zac Jackson, the punt return order during practice included WR DeAndre Carter, WR Luke Floriea, and WR Winston Wright. 5. 11 on 11 Work: Flacco began 11-on-11 drills with 5 snaps, and then QB Shedeur Sanders was next up with the second offense. Twitter was buzzing over this touchdown pass to WR Gage Larvadain: To me, the throw is ok, but I'm also thinking, "Ok, but CB Cameron Mitchell was also kind there." Back to Flacco's snaps, he had connected with WR Cedric Tillman on a high throw. This time, Tillman came down with it and didn't get hurt: 6. Post Practice Work: One thing that hasn't changed is that rookies are still getting post-practice work in: 7. Drill of the Day: As a callback to earlier when Ford returned to individual drills, here he is getting some running back work in: 8. Brownies: OG Joel Bitonio appeared to have a rest day, and OG Teven Jenkins remained out. ... That allowed OG Lorenzo Thompson to get some first-team reps. ... Jake Burns on Twitter noted how Cleveland was installing boot Shotgun action today with pulling guards. ... TE Sal Cannella concluded the day with an open catch-and-run touchdown pass from Sanders. 9. Next Up: The Browns next practice is Tuesday Monday at 2:00 pm. It will be the fourth of eight practices open to the public, and I will try to be in attendance personally. The theme will be 'Military Appreciation.' The food truck will be Edwin's. The giveaway will be a Cleveland Browns schedule poster.
