NT

The NT tag marks defensive formations and sets that field a true nose tackle over the center, spanning 10 formations and 33 sets from Nickel and Dollar looks to 3-4, 5-2, 46, and Goal Line Defense. Personnel like this anchors the A gaps, eats double teams, and keeps your linebackers clean to scrape sideline to sideline against inside zone and gap runs. Filter by NT when you want run-stuffing interior alignments in your scheme, whether you are building an odd front base defense or looking for a heavy sub package that holds up without abandoning your coverage shells.
