New England PatriotsAbilities and Traits
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.
Deep Out Zone KO
Defenders with this ability have a greatly improved chance to force catch knockouts, a longer knockout window, and react quicker in deep zone coverage, 20+ yards from the LoS and outside the hash marks. Upgrades with ZCV, SPD, and AWR.
Deep In Zone KO
Defenders with this ability have a slightly improved chance to force catch knockouts and react quicker in deep zone coverage, 20+ yards from the LoS and inside the hash marks. Upgrades with ZCV, AWR, and ACC.
Lurker
Defenders with this ability can make spectacular interceptions while lurking in zones, and are more likely to attempt and succeed at diving swats/catches. Upgrades with COD, ZCV, and SPD.
Menace
Defenders with this ability play more powerful catch tackles that force slightly increased knockouts and fatigue penalties on Perfect catch tackles. Upgrades with TAK, ZCV, and POW.
