Middle Linebacker

An Inside Linebacker or Middle Linebacker (MLB) is a member of the defense. The middle linebacker is often referred to as the “quarterback of the defense” because he is the leader of the defense and usually the one who receives the plays from the coaches on the sidelines. He is nicknamed the “Mike” linebacker.

(Famous linebackers: Dick Butkus, Lawrence Taylor, Ray Lewis)
