That's like it was more of a safety linebacker hybrid who's a safety who's going to come down, have coverage responsibilities, but blow you up.

And that's what Dante Wittner, take your head off, man.

My God, Dante Wittner was a great player.

And now, you know, it can be that.

It can be more coverage responsibility, that guy.

And this is where the, my primary confusion, not confusion, maybe curiosity comes from because that star position, that fifth DB, that guy who often, but not always winds up lined up in the slot can come out of the safety's room or it can come out of the corners room.

Right.

His baseline, like, and it's just one of those things.

If you're in the corner room, it's like, okay, you have to be able to cover.

And if you're in the safety room, you're probably maybe, you've got to be able to cover, but maybe you're a little more rangy.

Maybe you're a little bit more of a hitter.

If you're strong safety, like it's not the exact same skill set.

And so the skill set that applies to that fifth DB, that star position can come from either place, right?

But then your responsibilities can change in that position, right?

Like you really have to be kind of a special player to be able to do that.

But it's like, which way do you lean?

And sometimes like, okay, we're going to call it the star now.

Is that official?

Like when we discuss this from now on, we can just say free safety, strong safety and star.

Does that start right now?
