The Green Bay Packers roster in 2026 is going to look a bit different than it did in 2025 and years past. Due to their salary cap situation, they are going to have to part ways with some players that have been on the team for years. Among these is (probably) former Pro Bowl pass rusher Rashan Gary. If the Packers release him, they will save nearly $11 million in salary cap space.<\/p>\n

Another player that is presumably going to be released is two-time Pro Bowl offensive lineman Elgton Jenkins. If Green Bay does indeed part ways with him, it would clear up $20 million in cap space. However, despite the likelihood of his being available upon his release, there is still speculation that he could be targeted in a trade.<\/p>\n

Green Bay Packers star Elgton Jenkins named as dream trade target for the Seattle Seahawks<\/h2>\n

In a recent article in which he named the dream trade target of every NFL team, Alex Ballentine of\u00a0Bleacher Report\u00a0<\/em>suggests that Jenkins would be an ideal target of the Seattle Seahawks, who just won the Super Bowl:<\/p>\n

\n
\n

\u201cThe Seahawks proved to be the best team in the playoffs, but upgrading the interior of the offensive line could be critical to repeating. Gray Zabel is the only piece they should feel confident in going into the 2026 season.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cFortunately, the Seahawks are flush with cap space and could make an aggressive move to get a veteran starter if they want.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey could take advantage of the Packers\u2019 cap situation to make a run at Elgton Jenkins. The versatile offensive lineman has played just about every spot for the Packers, but did not play well when moved to center last season.<\/p>\n

\u201cLast offseason, the Bears were able to get Joe Thuney from the Chiefs for a fourth-round pick. The Seahawks don\u2019t have a fourth-rounder so they might have to get creative, but Jenkins would patch up one of the few holes on the Seahawks roster.<\/p>\n

\u201cA pick swap and the ability to take on Jenkins\u2019 $18.5 million salary could facilitate the upgrade for Seattle.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\n

In addition to the pick swap Ballentine alludes to, he suggests Green Bay would also receive a 2026 third round pick. This compensation would undoubtedly be attractive to the Packers, who do not have a first round pick after sending their two to the Dallas Cowboys in the Micah Parsons trade.<\/p>\n

This all being said, as mentioned, Jenkins is a likely roster cut candidate. While Green Bay would undoubtedly love to get something for him, the reality is that any NFL team interested in him will wait until he becomes a free agent so that they do not have to give up any picks for him.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
