I'm writing a story about a professional football player, a running back but I don't know what all of the other positions are. I know what a kicker and a center is.
I know what a quarterback is, of course. Only, I'm not sure why they call him a quarterback. Is it because he's a quarter of the way back from the other players?
I know what a running back is too, I think. And I know what a tackle is. Yet, how is a tackle different from a lineman.
What's an end and a defensive end, a tailback, halfback, fullback, God help me.
Then, I heard them say on TV a slot receiver? An ineligible receiver? What's the difference between a tight end and an end?
The only football games I watch are the New England Patriots games, my home team. All the rest of football, especially college football is boring to me. Sorry.
