The Buffalo Bills are working out defensive tackle Stevie Tu’ikolovatu on Wednesday, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers cut Tu'ikolovatu last week after spending the first couple of years of his career in Florida. The Buccaneers drafted Tu’ikolovatu in the seventh round in the 2017 draft, but injuries have derailed his career.

At the end of the 2017 preseasonTu’ikolovatu was placed on injured reserve and missed the entire season. Last season, the hope was that Tu’ikolovatu would see the field, but he suffered a triceps injury and was again placed on the injured reserve.

The injuries have cost a player who many were very high on during his college days. He started his career in Utah before transferring to USC and was one of the best run stoppers in the league. As a Junior at Utah, he recovered four fumbles which tied him for the lead in college football.  In 2016 at USC he racked up 53 tackles with two of them being for a loss.

Tu’ikolovatu is a pure run stopper who clogs up the middle of the defensive line and is hard to defend against. The biggest issue is his ability to stay healthy, and it's what needs to change if he wants to stay in the league.

Tu’ikolovatu is an NFL talent, but it's clear the Buccaneers were sick of dealing with him being always injured. Maybe the Bills will take a chance on him, and he can stay healthy, and he can prove to the rest of the league he belongs in the league.
