1)He was so dedicated to the Warrior's mission that he hashly trained his own daughter since infancy to aid them so it makes sense that he would be devoted to Zeke

2)He was too old to be considered an valid option himself but wanted to be usefull to Zeke on the mission and was actually worried for Annie so Zeke gave him a weak titan form

3)Zeke is familiar with Annie's kicks, maybe because her dad entusiasticaly talked to him about them

4)The nose 1) Or, he was forced to enlist her lest they both be kicked out the Hometown and become Titan food.

2) Doubt they'd waste a Titan's power on him since they already gave one to his daughter, an outsider (to the Hometown people) same as him.

3) Maybe Zeke observed Annie's training or watched from afar, y'know being her Lead Warrior and all.

4) We don't get to see his facial features in detail in the manga. Besides, that's not something valid enough to merit connection between the Quad Titan and him.
