    I’m an inside linebacker and I get blitzed a lot so I have runningback shoulder pads because it has extra padding.

    For my first year as offensive right and left guard went pretty rough cuz I was new to football,but I was getting the hang of it and it went smoother towards the end coach started putting me in a lot more than some of the ones who have been playing for years,this year is my second year and coach has me playing the same position on offense,but on defense I’m a linebacker and I was surprised because I was still new to be playing more than one position,he said I had the “linebacker body” I don’t know if that’s good or not 😆,but I’m ready to hit some people this year I got my first scrimmage this Friday so wish me luck
    Edit:our team is 3-3 rn I play tackle,guard and linebacker, I got 10 tackles so far I’m not starting on defense so I don’t get much time on defense and some games I don’t even go out on defense but when I do I always get tackles

      I never played football before except for this year and I had to get cleats before they told us our positions so I got those same cleats and when they put me at linebacker, I was kinda worried about ankle support because I had read a lot about having mid or high cleats at linebacker but this cleat has worked really well for me and I’m glad I chose it. And I would say it’s good for running back and cornerback because it’s a great cleat for speed and agility

    The only useful thing in this video is the shoulder pads and the restricter. U dont need gloves and low cleets to be an awesome player. Hightop cleets will always be the best to save your ankles from snapping. Gloves are extra. Visors are extra and if u use arm sleeves u need to just go play flag football.
