The addition of the 2023 Pro Bowler should help Green Bay's rushing attack, which has registered just 146 total yards on the ground. According to a report by ESPN Packers insider Rob Demovsky, that's the franchise's fewest rushing yards through three games in a season since at least 1933.
Zeitler was the 27th overall pick during the 2012 NFL Draft and spent his first five seasons with the Cincinnati Bengals. He's also played with the Cleveland Browns (2017-18), New York Giants (2019-20), Baltimore Ravens (2021-23), Detroit Lions (2024) and Tennessee Titans (2025).
Zeitler's been a durable lineman across his career, appearing in at least 12 games in each of his 14 seasons and 15 or more every year since 2015.
Green Bay will travel to face the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 4 on Sunday afternoon.
