During his 12 years in the NFL, Darryl Tapp has learned the importance of being versatile.
He's played defensive end, outside linebacker and has been a regular on special teams units while playing for five different teams.
In 2014, Tapp played a new position at times while with the Detroit Lions. After Nick Fairley suffered a season-ending knee injury in Week 8 that season, Tapp began to play a little defensive tackle.
And during minicamp with the New Orleans Saints last week, Tapp lined up at defensive tackle for a few team drills as he tries to provide another way to help the team.
