A fullback's primary job is to be a lead blocker. Similar to offensive linemen, fullbacks get very little recognition despite making important blocks the entire game. Unlike offensive linemen, the fullback usually lines up 2-3 yards behind the quarterback and may run with the football or catch balls thrown from the quarterback; however, it is rare for the fullback to touch the football (hence little or no recognition).

∙ 13y agoI'm a fullback for my football team, and usually the full back blocks the linebackers or anyone who gets through the line from the quarterback. Occasionally the fullback will run the ball, rarely by a pass though, mostly gets the ball handed off to him.
