Cover 2 Man

9 Formations43 Sets45 Plays

Overview

The Cover 2 Man tag identifies every play that pairs press or trail man coverage underneath with two deep safeties splitting the field, spanning 45 plays across 9 formations and 43 defensive sets from Dollar and Dime to 4-3 Under, 46 Predator, and 3-4 Over. It is the go-to shell for shutting down quick game and flat routes while keeping a safety over the top of vertical threats, and it gives you a clean user spot at one of the deep halves or a hook defender. Filter by this tag to build a man-heavy scheme, stack your personnel-specific looks (Nickel, Big Nickel, Quarter, 4-2-5), and find the exact set where your best press corners and blitz packages line up the way you want pre-snap.
