The Green Bay Packers are already getting used to life without Aaron Rodgers as their quarterback, as Jordan Love takes over following the trade with the New York Jets. 

The offense as a whole will need to learn the nuances of Love’s game and cadence under center, but none more than the offensive line. 

Rodgers has the ability to dissect a defense simply by walking to the line and looking out on the field, which leads to multiple changes in line coverage at times. Elgton Jenkins learned that quickly when he came in as a second-round pick in the 2019 NFL Draft.

But he also learned about how Rodgers treated his linemen and the type of person he was off the field. That’s why he admitted to NFL Network’s "Good Morning Football" that Rodgers will be missed in the locker room this year. 

"Just his presence in the locker room and the things that he brings to the game, the experience, all the stories that he had to tell and all that, he’s gonna be missed in our locker room for sure," Jenkins explained.
