Either will be sidelined for the Week 7 divisional contest after suffering the hip injury during practice Thursday, leaving the Detroit offensive line shorthanded against an aggressive Minnesota defense Sunday.

The Detroit Lions signed Kevin Zeitler to a one-year deal.

Zeitler joins Detroit after a Pro Bowl season with the Ravens. He has played at right guard for the majority of his career.

Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic is reporting that it is unlikely Kevin Zeitler is returning to the Ravens.

Zeitler is now set to hit free agency, who started all 47 games he appeared in with Baltimore. He should have plenty of interest in the free agent market.

Former New York Giants guard Kevin Zeitler has reached an agreement on a three-year, $22.5 million deal with the Baltimore Ravens with $16 million guaranteed.

Zeitler was released by the Giants earlier in the week due to the league's reduced salary cap for 2021. He was an All-Pro RG for the Cleveland Browns in 2016 and will provide an immediate upgrade within the interior of the Ravens' offensive line. This signing clearly indicates head coach John Harbaugh and OC Greg Roman plan to continue running an RPO-styled offense with star quarterback Lamar Jackson and sophomore running back J.K. Dobbins in 2021.

The New York Giants have announced that they are releasing veteran G Kevin Zeitler.

Fantasy Impact

Zeitler was one of the main pieces in the dual trades that sent Odell Beckham Jr. and Olivier Vernon packing in 2018. He started all but one game in his two seasons with the Giants, but age and salary made him a cap casualty. Zeitler has been a consistent and reliable contributor throughout his career and will likely have no issues finding a new home. The Giants clear $12M from their cap with $2.5M in dead money.
