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.
Secure Tackler
Defenders with this ability have an increased chance to avoid fakeouts and succeed when using conservative or diving tackles. Upgrades with TAK and PUR.
Mid Zone KO
Defenders with this ability have an improved chance to force catch knockouts, a longer knockout window, and react quicker in any mid-field zone coverage, less than 20 yards from the LoS inside the numbers and 10-20 outside. Upgrades with ZCV, PRC, and AWR.
Deflator
Defenders with this ability will cause increased fatigue penalties when tackling a ballcarrier with a non-conservative tackle. Upgrades with TAK and POW.
