Apparently (take it with a pinch of salt as this is just a "sources say" thing) the "senior player" who went to Southgate for an explanation as to Jack's exclusion was Kane. I'd just assumed it was Kyle out of loyalty to a club teammate etc. but it seems it was the captain.
I'm not going to make any bold claims or rash assumptions about England's performances at the Euros vs their potential if Jack had been there but it seems his exclusion rattled the camp.

How Harry Kane reacted right after Jack Grealish was axed from England's Euro 2024 squad
Harry Kane went on a walk with Gareth Southgatewww.manchestercity.news
Yeah, Jack made a real difference in that Germany game including the assist to Kane, who was also effusive in his praise before the last Euros.Kane seems to really rate Grealish
I remember an interview with Kane before the last euros and he was talking about how good Grealish is, this was when he was still a Villa player on the verge of signing to City. You could see it was genuine too, not just because he's obligated to big up his England teammate.
Maybe him and Grealish play well together in training or something. Didn't Grealish set him up vs Germany ?
Yeah. The div went on about us not keeping the ball well enough and had left out the best player in the country at it from a 26 man squad.For all the minutes he gave Bowen and Gordon, he might as well have just taken him, his big bold statement of dropping Grealish and Rashford ended up just being pathetic, what was it 4 minutes of game time for Gordon.
I know who I'd have preferred to come on and it would have also freed Phil to play the AM and not out Left.
