The defensive line is comprised of Defensive Ends (DE) and Defensive Tackles (DT) (DT). Defensive Ends are arranged at the line's ends, while Defensive Tackles are arranged between the Defensive Ends. The primary responsibility of Defensive Ends and Defensive Tackles is to halt running games on the outside or inside, to put pressure on the quarterback on passing plays, and to man the line in order for the Linebackers to break. Linebacker position themselves behind the defensive line, but in front of the defensive backfield. They are classified as Middle Linebacker (MLB) and Outside Linebacker (OLB) (OLB). Linebackers serve as the defensive coordinators and initiate defensive play. Among their many responsibilities are run defense, quarterback protection, and the monitoring of running backs, wide receivers, and tight ends in the passing game.
