INDIANAPOLIS — Margus Hunt looks nothing like the typical nose tackle.

A nose tackle should look something like a sumo wrestler — think Vince Wilfork — or at the very least like Damon Harrison, a powerlifter with a spare tire. Hunt is long and lean, as lanky as a man who weighs 300 pounds can possibly be, the weight stretched out over a 6-8 frame that is one of the tallest in the NFL.
