zigzagger

One who veers

A zigzagger is someone or something that moves in a zigzag pattern—sharp alternating turns rather than a straight line.

A running back might be a skilled zigzagger, evading tacklers with quick directional changes.

On sewing machines, a zigzagger is an attachment that creates zigzag stitches.
