The linebacker plays all over the field on his nationally ranked defense.
At Husky Stadium last weekend, the Michigan football team never knew what was coming next from Washington.
Except that Tuputala was hard to pin down this past weekend by those visiting Wolverines when it came to determining his actual defensive responsibility. With the way the UW moved the sixth-year senior around in its 27-17 victory, he might as well have been holding down all 11 spots on defense. For all of those reasons, Fisch's coaching staff chose Tuputala as "Dawg of the Week," which is sort of a new team service award doled out in-house to players simply for doing things right.
Even with his well-worn football body, he doesn't take practices off, setting an example for everyone around him.Alphonzo Tuputala, far left, arrives with coach Jedd Fisch and his Husky teammates on game day. / Skylar Lin Visuals
