👉 A slotback is a position in American football that is often used by running backs. They typically play as a backfield player, primarily responsible for blocking and rushing the passer. Slotbacks are also known as "slot" players because they are often positioned on the left side of the field, where blockers are more likely to come from the right. In college football, slotback positions are often used by teams that don't have a strong quarterback or running back in their lineup.
