Who is a "slot receiver"?
A slot receiver is a player in American football who lines up in the area between the wide receiver and the offensive line, often referred to as the "slot." This player’s role is to run shorter routes and catch passes from the quarterback. Slot receivers are usually quick and good at making sharp turns to get open in tight spaces. They are important for gaining yards in short passing plays and helping the team move the ball forward. In addition to catching passes, they may also block for other players or run the ball in some situations.
Example
The slot receiver caught a quick pass for a gain of five yards.
The quarterback often looks to the slot receiver on third downs.
The slot receiver broke free for a long touchdown.
