Tom’s four-year extension will play out like a two-year deal with two team options for Green Bay.

Over the Cap has received the full contract details of right tackle Zach Tom’s new contract extension with the Green Bay Packers. As reported, it is indeed a four-year extension worth a total of $88 million in new money.

As expected, the only fully guaranteed money comes in the form of a signing bonus, which is worth $30.2 million. The other $58 million is essentially pay-as-you-go from the Packers’ perspective, but some of that money is more likely to be earned by Tom...

Lloyd is dealing with a non-contact groin injury after four separate issues led to him playing just one regular season game as a rookie.

“Unfortunate” is the term that Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur used to explain running back MarShawn Lloyd’s injury in his pre-practice press conference. Lloyd, a second-year third-round pick, only played in one regular-season game as a rookie last year due to a series of medical issues, including appendicitis and injuries to his hip, hamstring and ankle.

Now, Lloyd has a groin issue that he apparently sustained on Monday. At first, it was believed that...

The Packers’ multi-talented offensive lineman has put his contract issues behind him.

On the Packers’ first day of padded practice, the focus was mainly on a guy who wasn’t in pads.

Elgton Jenkins ended his holdout/hold-in/stint on the NFI list Monday, returning to practice after missing the start of camp and essentially the entire offseason over a contract dispute — a contract dispute that wasn’t really about the money.

We’ve been over this a few times already at APC (look here and here), but it bears repeating: Jenkins’ dispute wasn’t about cashflow, it was about security. No matter how much...

Jenkins is already slated to be compensated like the second-highest-paid interior offensive lineman on a multi-year contract next year.

The Green Bay Packers’ guard-turned-center Elgton Jenkins wanted a new contract this offseason, which is why he never took a snap with the team this summer until Monday, when he was activated off the non-football injury list. That is truth.

What I will push back on, though, is this narrative that Jenkins’ contract issue stemmed from what type of money he’ll make at the center position compared to guard.

Below is a tweet from Sports Illustrated’s Bill Huber, who I believe...

Alexander missed Monday’s practice but is expected to return on Tuesday.

For those of you who were wondering why the Green Bay Packers couldn’t see eye-to-eye on a deal that would work out for both them and their former cornerback Jaire Alexander, it appears that his knee injury has not fully healed. While Alexander’s father accused the Packers of misdiagnosing the cornerback’s 2024 knee injury, the situation doesn’t appear to have resolved since he left Green Bay.

On Monday, Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh told the press that Alexander would end up missing the Ravens’ first padded practice of...

Brian Gutekunst has spent a hefty bit of cash and draft capital at linebacker. Will it finally make a difference?

As the Packers’ general manager, Brian Gutekunst has a lot of ongoing projects.

His most successful one — last year’s renovation of the safety room — bore incredible fruit last year and figures to be at least as good this year.

His most ambitious one — the continual work he’s done on the Packers’ wide receiver corps in the wake of Davante Adams’ departure — is entering its most high-stakes phase. You might have heard the Packers took a wide...

The veteran interior lineman is back in practice and it appears nothing has changed with his contract

The Elgton Jenkins possible-maybe-sort of saga appears to be over, exactly zero padded practice days into training camp.

Now, technically speaking, there was never any saga at all. Jenkins never held out in training camp, but instead was on the NFI list. Players are placed on the NFI when they sustain an injury away from the team facility. Per the team, Jenkins was out with a back issue, but was removed from the NFI this morning and started practicing as soon as the...

Here’s what center Elgton Jenkins said after his first practice as a participant with the Green Bay Packers this year.

Like Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst said in his opening training camp practice, center Elgton Jenkins did return to the field today once he was activated off the non-football injury list. Jenkins only went through walkthroughs with the team, as he’s still working through a back issue, but this is the first time he’s participated in a Packers practice this year.

Jenkins missed voluntary workouts with the team this spring and summer and was a hold-in for the...

Your Green Bay Packers finally wore shoulder pads for the first time this summer, and it got a little chippy.

Monday marked the first practice that the Green Bay Packers had in training camp following their “acclimation period.” In layman’s terms, this means that the shoulder pads came on for the first time this summer.

Unfortunately, the big news of the day was that free-agent cornerback signing Nate Hobbs probably took it a little too far. Just days after Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said that Hobbs needed to work on playing through hands instead of the body of his...

Jenkins will begin his road back to full practice participation on Monday.

Monday is a big day for the Green Bay Packers, as the team will take a notable step towards getting its preferred starting offensive line all together. The last part of that puzzle, Elgton Jenkins, has been sitting out to start camp after landing on the non-football injury list. However, as of Monday, Jenkins is officially off the NFI list and will begin ramping back up towards practice participation.

Head coach Matt LaFleur made the announcement about Jenkins’ activation in his morning press conference ahead of Monday’s practice,...

So far it has been a good start to training camp for this position group.

When the Green Bay Packers did not select a cornerback in the 2025 NFL Draft, there were plenty of fans of the team wringing their hands. Especially with Jaire Alexander’s uncertain status — which would end about six weeks later in his abrupt release — the concern level was high about that position group.

Keisean Nixon, Carrington Valentine, and free agent arrival Nate Hobbs are expected to be the team’s top three cornerbacks throughout this season. Those players were selected as follows in their respective...

Mark McNamee might be missing from Green Bay for a while.

The Green Bay Packers have a full 91-man roster for the first practice since June today, but one player was missing: Irish kicker Mark McNamee. According to head coach Matt LaFleur, McNamee returned to Ireland because of an issue stemming from his Visa status, but he hopes to return stateside soon. Until then, Brandon McManus, who has been kicking about every other practice this summer, will handle all of the team’s kicking duties.

Aside from the McNamee situation, here’s what happened in Packers practice today.
