An H-back is a position in American football often used as a versatile option in both the running and passing game. Positioned behind the offensive line and sometimes in front of the tailback, the H-back can be used as a blocker, a receiver, or a runner. On running plays, the H-back helps block defenders to clear paths for the running back. On passing plays, the H-back can catch short passes or serve as an additional blocker for the quarterback. The H-back is typically more mobile than a traditional tight end, allowing for a variety of roles in the offense.
