Daniel Muir got his start in the NFL with the Green Bay Packers, and now he’s coming back.

The Packers announced today that they have re-signed the defensive tackle.

Terms were not immediately available.

Muir entered the NFL as an undrafted free agent and played in three games as a rookie in 2007. The played for the Indianapolis Colts from 2008-11. He played in all but two games in the 2009-10 season but appeared in only four games last year.

In all, the 6-2, 312-pound Muir played in 40 games (26 starts) for the Colts.

Glad To Be A Packers Fan.

Maybe this will work out. He can play behind Raji @ NT in our current scheme.

312 pounds? I'm not sure so I'll ask, isn't that light for NT/DT?

Underwhelming move.

May help depth, but doubt he's going to be much bigger of a contributor to the DL rotation than Neal, Wynn, et all were last year.

Yes, It's light. It's always light. If they are fast, I'd prefer they weighed at least 650 lbs.

The Colts were also known for fielding smaller, more agile linemen with the old regime.

And I think he didn't make the roster in '07 because we had quite a few undertackles, already. The kind that would play DE in our 3-4.

I reckon he's more of a depth pick-up at DE. Although he could very well become a starter if we don't do anything at DE in the draft, because I don't feel like either him, Wynn, Wilson or Guy have any real edge in potential or skill over one another.

Daniel Muir will be playing defensive end in the base 3-4 and I actually think it's his job to lose cause numbnuts Neal will be sitting out 4 games and W W and G are not much more than camp fodder. I remember being upset when we cut Muir as a rookie because we were pretty stoudt at the time.

ok move. not sexy. not earth shattering. run him through camp and see what we have. it is a certainty that he, Wynn, Wilson and Guy won't all make the team so through a process of numbers they will hopefully upgrade the position. All will of course play behind our 1st round pick who ever that is.

The Second "Colt" signed by Ted in the last 24 hours.

Ted is a wise, mysterious, void of emotion, weird looking human being...

However... I have a feeling... (Cue the Munsters Music) "A Feeling Deep Inside" that he has a precise plan, as always. And it is indeed a brilliant plan indeed.
