Ravens G Kevin Zeitler receives major praise from HC John Harbaugh

The Baltimore Ravens have put together an offensive line unit that the feel comfortable in from left to right. The unit has both veterans and young players on it, and one of the leaders of the group is guard Kevin Zeitler.

After Baltimore’s Week 8 win over the Arizona Cardinals, Ravens head coach John Harbaugh was asked to talk about Zeitler’s work ethic and leadership as a whole. Harbaugh showered praise on the veteran lineman, saying that he leads both by relationship and example.

“He’s a leader in an interesting way. First of all, about work ethic, this guy – you can’t believe how he practices. You know he’s the guy that does the pass sets when his wife’s having a baby in the hospital.” (laughter)“You’ve seen that, right? That’s how he is all the time. He’s just on his craft all the time, but more than that, he’s a leader by relationship. He has the guys over to his house. He has them by the pool. I don’t know what they eat – [it’s] probably a lot. They have a lot of fun, and he leads that way, which is neat. He does it by relationship and by example, I would say.”
