Shutdown

Shutdown defenders have the talent to erase receivers from the game. When they enter the zone, their coverage is tighter and interceptions are more frequent on contested catches.

Lurker

Defenders with this ability can make jumping, 180-degree interceptions while lurking in a zone in the middle of the field.

Unfakeable

Defenders with this ability are rarely faked out by ballcarrier moves (and cannot be faked out when user-controlled).

Lumberjack

Defenders with this ability allow fewer broken tackles and cause more fumbles when cut-sticking ballcarriers.

Deep In Zone KO

Defenders with this ability force more catch knockouts and react quicker in deep zone coverage, 20+ yards from the LoS and inside the numbers.

Deep Out Zone KO

Defenders with this ability force more catch knockouts and react quicker in deep zone coverage, 20+ yards from the LoS and outside the hash marks.

Mid Zone KO

Defenders with this ability force more catch knockouts and react quicker in any mid-field zone coverage, less than 20 yards from the LoS inside the numbers and 10-20 outside.
