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.

Closer

Locker room pep talks go a long way. Players with this ability can easily enter the Zone in the 2nd half.

Under Pressure

Defenders with this ability can apply pressure to the quarterback from a greater distance.

Flat Zone KO

Defenders with this ability force more catch knockouts and react quicker in any flat zone coverage, less than 10 yards from the LoS and outside the hash marks.
