Sporting Charts explains Defensive Linemen
This unit of the defense is made up of some of the most physical and strong players that make up a football team. Each game they battle for physical dominance in the running game and provide a powerful pass rush, with the goal of sacking the opposing team's quarterback. Having a dominant defensive line allows the linebackers and defensive backs the time to make a ton of plays in the running and passing game.
