I wonder what the percentage of tackles he had while in the game? It must have been around 30%. Take out 15 tackles from kickoffs so he has 6/40. Now figure he was only in on half of the plays so he has 6/20. My reverse engineering worked and I have "proved" he made 30% of the tackles he possibly could have. That is impressive, even if they are only assisted tackles from jumping on the pile.

6 = 5? Must be new math.
I would also be interested in the % of plays he made tackles while in the game.
**Obvious statement ahead**
JL has a real nose for the ball.
