Packers finally give Kevin Zeitler an opportunity, but now they must start him

Following a Week 9 win over the New England Patriots, Carlos Sanchez of Lombardi Ave argues that the Green Bay Packers should elevate veteran offensive guard Kevin Zeitler into the starting lineup. Zeitler made his debut for the Packers by playing several snaps at right guard after Aaron Banks temporarily exited the game with an injury.

Sanchez points out that Green Bay signed Zeitler to a one-year, $4.05 million contract in late September after he recovered from offseason leg surgery. The writer asserts that permanently sliding Laken Tomlinson to left guard and starting Zeitler at right guard would give the Packers their best possible offensive line combination for the second half of the season.
