In 2012 and 2013 when we had some of our best defenses ever (6th and 3rd) we used a rotation of D-linemen, but MJ played more snaps than any other D-lineman.

This.

I think MJ wanted to play LB more than DE, but the team should have had him bulk up much sooner.  His rookie season he only weighed 255 in training camp.  He was skinny.  He looked like an NBA player instead of NFL.
