Reinforcement

The game's top defenders excel in all situations. When they enter the zone, this ability increases their chance of defeating run blocks, and disrupting catches via tackles.

Lurker

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

Run Stopper

Defenders with this ability do not need to spend a point on shed attempts during a run play

Secure Tackler

Defenders with this ability have an increased success rate when using conservative or diving tackles.

Avalanche

There are tacklers and then there are these guys. When they enter the zone any successful hit-stick made while running towards the line of scrimmage will result in a fumble.

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.
