Former Penn offensive lineman Greg Van Roten signs with Seahawks

Just three days after he was released from the Green Bay Packers, former Penn offensive lineman and 2012 grad Greg Van Roten now plays for the Super Bowl Champions.

So Van Roten tweeted this morning, marking his second stop in the NFL. Van Roten made 10 regular-season and three playoff appearances in two seasons with Green Bay. Van Roten could compete for a starting position at either center or guard for Seattle.

The two-time first-team All-Ivy selection missed most of 2013 with a foot injury, but as ESPN reported earlier this week, his release was considered a surprise move and had nothing to do with the foot injury, which his agent Bill Baldini said felt fine during the season.

The Rockville Centre, N.Y. native was signed by Green Bay as an undrafted free agent just before the start of training camp in 2012 after participating in rookie minicamps with the San Diego Chargers and New York Jets.

Van Roten started all 30 games for Penn throughout his final three seasons, helping anchor the offensive line for the 2009 and 2010 Ivy League championship teams and leading the Quakers to the top rushing, scoring and total offense in the conference as a junior.
