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.

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.

Martha Careful (21-Dec) : I think MLF want Love to look past the end half issues, and feel good about his play. Our coaches generally keep a very positive tone.

packerfanoutwest (21-Dec) : Coach Matt LaFleur has said quarterback Jordan Love is playing the best football of his career.

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Or if KC needs to win for the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Right now it looks like the only prime worthy games are Det-Minny and KC-Denver (if Denver can clinch a wild card spot)

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : The entirety of week 18 being listed as flex is weird

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Matt LaFleur today says unequivocally "Ted Thompson had nothing to do with the drafting of Jordan Love."

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Apparently, the editing is what pieces comments together. That Ted thing ... fake news.

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : LaFleur "opportunity that Ted Thompson thought was too good to pass up"

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Jordan Love pick was Ted Thompson's idea.

Mucky Tundra (19-Dec) : Kyle Shanahan on signing De'Vondre Campbell as a FA last offseason: “We obviously made a mistake.”

packerfanoutwest (19-Dec) : Alexander’s last season with GB

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : a lower case b

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : The real lie is how beast capitalized his name in his message while it's normally spelled with

packerfanoutwest (18-Dec) : haha that's a lie

beast (17-Dec) : Despite what lies other might tell, Beast didn't hate the Winter Warnings, it felt refreshing to Beast for some reason.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : whiteout uniforms in general are pretty lame and weak. NFL greed at it's worst

Martha Careful (17-Dec) : The Viking uniforms, the whiteout uniforms specifically absolutely suck

beast (17-Dec) : Thanks Zero2Cool, looks a lot better now

beast (17-Dec) : Seems like someone has a crush on me, can't stop talking about me

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : Should be gooder now. The forum default theme went to goofy land.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : What the hell

packerfanoutwest (17-Dec) : yeah beast hates the Winter Warning Unies

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Okay I'm glad to know it's not just something happening to me lol

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Zero, did you copy the Packers uniforms from last night and white out the board?

beast (16-Dec) : Oh crap, is the board going to the Winter Warning Uniforms too?!? It's all white on white right now!

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : WR Odell Beckham Jr is officially a free agent after clearing waivers.
