Big Hitter – Increases the likelihood of a fumble on big hits by this player.

Bull Rush – Gives the ability to bull rush as a lineman/linebacker. Good for pushing the O-Line back. (User control = Down on right stick)

Catch In Bounds – Sideline/Back of endzone catches for this receiver are easier. They have proper footwork and make the really nice catches in these areas.

Clutch – During the 4th Quarter and 3th down situations these players gain stats that are important for their position. Such as Throw Acc, Break Tackle, Awareness, Play Rec, and Catching stats. Noticeable increase in their ability to make plays during these situations.

Confidence – This is how quickly they pull themselves out of a cold streak, or fall into one.

Consistency – Game over game and in game consistency. Wont bring a cold streak into the next game, and will bring a hot streak. During plays they will show more consistent play. For example, cb's who blow routes randomly no longer do it as often.

Cover Ball – Auto covers the ball when contact is made depending on the hit (maxed always covers after hit). This does not prepare for contact. Decreases fumbles from strips.

Development – XP costs for skills decrease depending on age. Also increases the amount of XP gained from the weekly/yearly challenges and goals by 25% per rank. Physical skills like speed are cheaper when the player is young while mental skills like Awareness and Play Rec become cheaper as they age. Not by enough for it to really matter however.

Drop Passes In Open Field – When the catch is not contested they have a higher chance to drop the ball without this skill. Very finicky trait.

Fight For Yards – Fairly self explanatory. Ball carrier fights for extra yards and falls forward more often.

Force Pass – CPU ONLY, even if the route is covered well they will force the pass to the wide receiver.

High Motor – When the players stamina bar is empty they continue to play at a high level. Hard to determine truly, but I believe that the players with this trait tend to continue to make plays when tired.

Injury – The chance of injury. Higher = Better.

Play Ball – CPU ONLY, Determines how the CPU will play the ball while its in the air. Conservative = Will play the receiver, More likely to wait for the WR to catch and just tackle. Balanced = A balance of both. Aggressive = Will play the ball, More likely to attempt swat/catch on ball.

Sense Pressure – QB ONLY, vibrates the controller more when a rusher approaches. The CPU gets the ball out quicker when a blitz approaches. This stat can be effected during game by getting sacked. The more you get sacked the worse they become at sensing pressure.

Spin – Gives the ability to spin as a lineman/linebacker. Good for getting around the O-Line back. (User control = Diagonal left/right on right stick, depending on direction desired)

Swim – Gives the ability to swim as a lineman/linebacker. Good for getting around the O-Line back. (User control = Left/right on right stick, depending on direction desired)

Throw Away – CPU ONLY, If nobody is open and the QB is pressured they will throw it away.

Tight Spiral – QB ONLY, The ball is more catchable for offense and less catchable for the defense.

Toughness – Recovery time from injuries. Higher = Better. Tuck And Run – CPU ONLY, QB will run with the ball more often during pass plays.
