Despite coming off a major injury and being a Monday Packers cap casualty, **[Elgton Jenkins](https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/J/JenkEl00.htm?utm_medium=linker&utm_source=www.profootballrumors.com&utm_campaign=2026-03-10_pfr)** had interested suitors waiting. The Browns will win that pursuit, [according to NFL.com’s Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero](https://x.com/RapSheet/status/2031487456160121299).
Jenkins was released with a failed physical designation, but the Browns will work with the rehabbing blocker. Jenkins agreed to a two-year deal worth $24MM, per NFL.com. Illustrating the interest coming in for the former Pro Bowler, $20MM of that deal is guaranteed.
A two-time Pro Bowler as a guard, Jenkins has played both tackle positions and most recently stepped in at center for the 2025 Packers. Green Bay extended Jenkins (four years, $68MM) during his second Pro Bowl campaign, but with one year remaining on that contract, the former second-round pick was deemed expendable. As the Packers have pivoted to other expenses on their O-line, they moved on. The Browns continue to reshape their front with outside vets.
