Daniel Muir - DL - Chiefs

Jets signed DT Daniel Muir.

Released at final cuts by the Packers, Muir will provide veteran depth along the defensive line with NT Sione Pouha's back continuing to be an issue. A six-year veteran, Muir is just two years removed from starting 14 games for the Colts.

Daniel Muir - DL - Chiefs

Packers released DT Daniel Muir.

It's a mild surprise considering Mike Neal's four-game suspension. Phillip Merling now looks like a good bet to stick with the Packers.

Daniel Muir - DL - Chiefs

Packers signed DT Daniel Muir, formerly of the Colts.

Muir, 28, goes 6-foot-2, 312 and will likely compete for a roster spot at nose tackle behind B.J. Raji. Muir is a journeyman, No. 5 defensive tackle type.

Daniel Muir - DL - Chiefs

Colts waived DT Daniel Muir and CB Prince Miller.

It's perhaps a sign that rookie Drake Nevis is over his back injury. Once could argue that Muir was outplaying Antonio Johnson and Fili Moala, however. Signed a week ago, Prince Miller didn't contribute in the return game against the Falcons.

Daniel Muir - DL - Chiefs

Colts signed DT Daniel Muir, formerly of the Rams.

Muir was amongst the Rams' final cuts. He appeared in 36 games for the Colts between 2008 and 2010, notching 93 tackles and 0.5 sacks. He'll provide depth along a defensive line that lost Eric Foster for the season last Monday and is currently missing Drake Nevis.

Daniel Muir - DL - Chiefs

Rams agreed to terms with DT Daniel Muir on a one-year, $1.85 million contract.

The Rams showed surprisingly little interest in Barry Cofield, but they've now added Muir and Justin Bannan on the interior. Pro Football Focus' 77th-rated defensive tackle with the Colts last year, Muir is likely ticketed for a rotational role behind Bannan and Fred Robbins.

Daniel Muir - DL - Chiefs

Free agent DT Daniel Muir is reportedly drawing interest from the Broncos and Rams.

Not exactly consolation for losing out on Brandon Mebane. The Broncos are interested in seemingly every defensive tackle available, so their inclusion is no surprise. Muir is more of a rotational tackle than starter-caliber.

Daniel Muir - DL - Chiefs

Colts DT Dan Muir didn't travel with the Colts to Oakland, and will miss Week 16 against the Raiders.

Ricardo Mathews will start on the left side of Indy's defensive line, and will have his hands full stopping powerful RBs Darren McFadden and Michael Bush.

Daniel Muir - DL - Chiefs

Colts re-signed restricted free agent DT Daniel Muir to a one-year, $1.759 million contract.

A former undrafted free agent out of Kent State, Muir emerged as a starter and every-down player for Indy last season, racking up an impressive 52 tackles. While fellow first-team DT Antonio Johnson should get a push from Fili Moala, Muir's starting job will likely be secure heading to training camp.

Daniel Muir - DL - Chiefs

Colts claimed DT Daniel Muir off waivers from the Packers.

Muir (6'2/298) is an interior pass rusher and adds some needed depth with Raheem Brock switching outside. He'll be Indy's fourth tackle this season.
