He's actually from New England (New Britain CT). A career backup that would be primarily, if not exclusively a special teams player. Maybe BB is hoping to find the next Larry Izzo.

Here's a link with info on him for the Tampa Bay fan site/message board:

PR Predicts: LB Niko Koutouvides - Pewter Report

Quote:

2010 SEASON
Last season Koutouvides was fourth on the team in special teams tackles with 14. He did not record a tackle on defense. He played in 14 games with zero starts.

CAREER UP TO THIS POINT
Koutouvides has been a backup for his entire career. He played four seasons in Seattle, one with Denver and the past two with Tampa Bay. Throughout his career, Koutouvides has had to fight to make the roster each preseason. He has stayed in the league due to his quality play on special teams. In 2009 Koutouvides led the Bucs in special teams tackles with 18.

He's a fearless hitter, was always light for LB, but threw his body around the field with reckless abandon in college.

He WAS actually drafted by Seattle.
