2024 Projections
Tuggle has made the switch from outside linebacker to inside, the Houston Chronicle reports.
ANALYSIS
Tuggle started the transition during organized team activities and is now firmly an inside linebacker in defensive coordinator Romeo Crennel's system. This should improve Tuggle's chances of playing time as Houston is full of quality outside backers like Whitney Mercilus, Brooks Reed and first-overall draft pick Jadeveon Clowney.
