Running Back

The Running Back (RB) is an Offensive Position, positioned in various places. The Running Back can be positioned as a Slotback or as a Halfback.

Responsibility
The main responsibility of a Running Back is to get the ball from the Quarterback, run close to the sidelines, and run up field. If it is a passing play, the Running Back will act as a Wide Receiver and run up field for the ball. It is up to Safety to cover this Runner.
