Generally takes a different kind of mindset to play ST. You can't be soft because you know that you're going to run full speed into someone whether you're in on the tackle or not. Maybe Marko was too thin to hold up on teams? I have no idea, maybe he just had no instincts whatsoever, or maybe they just never game him the chance. I will say this, he doesn't seem like he's built like some sort of special teams maven, I could see him getting hurt trying to play teams.
