👥 Positions Deep Dive

The field general. Calls plays, throws passes, hands off, and manages the entire offense.

Lines up behind the QB. Takes handoffs and runs. Also catches passes out of the backfield.

Lines up wide, runs routes, catches passes. The fastest players on the field.

Hybrid between a lineman and receiver. Blocks AND catches passes. A nightmare matchup.

Snaps the ball to the QB. The anchor of the offensive line and the 'quarterback of the line'.

Lines up inside the tackles. Protects the QB and creates running lanes.

The outermost linemen. Left tackle protects the QB's blind side — the most valued O-line position.

A power blocker who leads the running back through the hole. Rare in modern football.
