INDIANAPOLIS — Joe Alt was born to be a left tackle.
But first, he had to play tight end.
He played the position in high school and at times during his freshman year in Notre Dame. It was great for his footwork, and an example his father lived years earlier. John Alt, a member of the Chiefs Hall of Fame and a two-time Pro Bowl player, had started off at tight end before switching in college.
