The correct term is the "Defensive end." There are two of them . They are at the end of the defensive line next to the tackle . Either the right or the left or left side . they do not get in a lineman stance but they stand up halfway in a crouch . Their job is to either get past the line of scrimmage and to make sure NOBODY gets past them . When the ball gets on the other side of the line of scrimmage they are the 1st ones to get yelled at .
