Mutual Admiration Between Karl Dunbar, Tyson Alualu, May Have Tipped Scales In His Return

What all happened over the course of the past week and a half or so that led to Tyson Alualu changing his mind, and opting not to sign with the Jacksonville Jaguars, but rather to return to the Pittsburgh Steelers on a contract that is reportedly worth less than what he agreed to with Jacksonville?

We likely won’t ever learn all the details, but I do hope that we will at one point gain a bit more understanding into the role that defensive line coach Karl Dunbar may have played, as according to Aditi Kinkhabwala, “a major pitch” from his position coach played a pivotal role in helping him change his mind.
