I saw one or two Utes on X downplay Tanuvasa by calling out stats. That shows
you how unknowledgeable some people are about the game of football. (but like to yap anyway)

The role of an interior defensive lineman isn't to rack up a bunch of tackles or sacks. Yes the good ones will get some, as Tanuvasa did when he played a full season in 2023, and actually led all Utah DTs in tackles and sacks that year. But the role of a defensive linemen is to clog up the middle - often drawing double teams - freeing linebackers to fill gaps and make a play on the RB or QB. Anyone who knows ball knows that Tanuvasa is capable of causing a lot of problems and disrupting an offense when he's healthy and on the field.
