What happened: Green Bay reportedly agreed with 14-season veteran Kevin Zeitler on a one-year deal. The addition is the Packers' third veteran offensive line move this week alongside Laken Tomlinson and Mekhi Becton.

Why it matters: Adding three veterans in days gives Green Bay experienced interior options without long-term commitment. One-year terms preserve roster flexibility while the newcomers compete for active roles.

By the numbers: Zeitler has played 14 NFL seasons. Tomlinson, drafted 28th overall out of Duke in 2015, played 10 games with Houston in 2025. Becton, drafted 11th overall out of Louisville in 2020, signed with Green Bay on Sept. 28, the same day as Tomlinson.

What to watch: Watch how Green Bay slots the three newcomers into the active roster and line rotation.
