Defenders with this ability can make spectacular interceptions while lurking in zones, and are more likely to attempt and succeed at diving swats/catches. They also have an improved catch chance on tipped passes, better ball security on interceptions, and unlimited stamina on the return (until using a special move or breaking a tackle). Upgrades with COD, ZCV, and SPD.

Players with this ability avoid any ratings penalties associated with playing outside of their primary position and have reduced stamina costs for all actions. Upgrades with SPD, ACC, and COD.

Defenders with this ability have a greatly increased chance to react much faster to receiver cut moves when in man coverage. Upgrades with MCV, COD, and PRC.

Defenders with this ability have a greatly 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.
