Universal Coverage

The most physical coverage defenders prevent catches from happening even when their target has hands on the ball. When they enter the zone, they are nearly guaranteed knockouts.

Outside Shade

Defenders with this ability generally react much faster to receiver cut moves when in man coverage and outside the numbers

Bench Press

Defenders with this ability apply bonus fatigue to their man coverage target after a successful press win

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.

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.

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.

One Step Ahead

Defenders with this ability generally react much faster to receiver cut moves when in man coverage

Pick Artist

Defenders with this ability have higher chance to catch uncontested interceptions, and they have unlimited stamina on the return (until using a special move or breaking a tackle).
