fullback

fullback
Noun
pl: fullbacks

The term describes a specific defensive role across various sports, but the tactical requirements vary significantly by code. In soccer, the role has evolved from a purely defensive position to one that frequently overlaps into the attack, often blurring the line between a defender and a winger.

In American football, the fullback is distinct from the halfback; while both are running backs, the fullback is typically larger and tasked with lead blocking to create gaps for others. In rugby, the fullback serves as the primary safety net, requiring high agility and precise kicking skills to manage territorial gains.
