Chris Sagredo what about the middle linebacker there is no receiver that comes up the middle they are all on out side

Nordi Boi and BiG MOTO the middle line backer would be responsible for hole (a drop towards the middle of the field within 15 yards of the line of scrimmage) or potential cross/in routes coming across the field because outsider linebackers don’t chase in routes

GamingKGS ok because I know that in flag the middle linebacker covers the snapper but obviously there is no wide recievers coming up the middle they are on side but thx
