Corey Linsley

Linsley was never supposed to start at center last year, but as with most important positions for the Packers, injuries forced their hand early.

He turned out to be the center of the future for the team, and is handling his responsibilites with ease.

Linsley had a nearly flawless year in ’14 for a rookie. A few mishaps here and there, but nothing that couldn’t be overlooked by his typically consistent play.

In 2015, he started off very strong, again.

However, a high ankle sprain kept him out of the lineup for a few weeks and left him hobbled through the end of the season, though he did try and return to action.

He has a great rapport with Rodgers, even for a young guy, and has awesome potential to be the guy under center that can bring stability to the position like Rodgers has been seeking.
