Who is a "receiver"?

A receiver is a player in American football whose job is to catch passes from the quarterback. They run specific paths on the field to get open, so the quarterback can throw the ball to them. Once they catch the ball, their goal is to run as far as possible, often trying to score by reaching the end zone. Receivers need to be quick and have good hands to catch the ball, even when there are defenders trying to stop them. They are an important part of the team’s offense.
