Tyson Alualu: News and Notes
- May 15 Alualu is set to make the switch from DE to DT, Mark Long of the Associated Press reports.
Recommendation: Alualu will play the strong-side defensive end position. "We just felt like in the D-line he had the most ability to play multiple positions and we feel it's a good fit," coach Gus Bradley said. Alualu previously played this position while at Cal.

- May 15 The Jacksonville Jaguars see upside in moving Tyson Alualu outside. The Jaguars have shifted the former first-round draft pick from defensive tackle to defensive end, getting the 6-foot-3, 295-pound Hawaiian in a run-stopping role while allowing him to work in space.
Advice: Coach Gus Bradley believes it will be a "better fit" for Alualu. Alualu was the 10th pick in the 2010 draft, a selection widely considered a reach. It didn't help that Alualu injured his right knee in the preseason of his rookie year. Instead of getting surgery, he played two years with nagging pain and occasional swelling.
