He has been thr first IOL off the bench for the Patriots for a few years now and has played Center, Right Guard, Left Guard, and Left Tackle. In Cincinnati I expect him to take over Center duties.
You're right. I'm checking his stats, and I found out that he played as a center for the Dolphins in 2020 and for the Patriots in 2019. Last year he played 829 snaps (as center and guard in NE) and allowed 3 sacks (plus 2 penalties). PFF gave him a 72.8 grade. He's decent imo. It seems that Zac likes players with leardership, and Karras was a team captain while playing for Dolphins (another factor behind the signing?).
