A slot back is a receiver or running back that lines up between the offensive tackle on the end of the line and a wide receiver on the same end of the line. That area between the tackle and receiver is called the 'slot', so the player that lines up in that area is called the 'slot back'. The term slot back does not refer to a specific player on every play, like a halfback or fullback, but to a player that lines up in a specific area on a specific play. There may be a slot back on one play and no slot back on another. A slotback is a position in football (hopefully you knew that), generally the slotback lines up 1 yards to the right or left of the end of the line (but still on the line), they are used mainly to block outside linebackers, on certain plays they are used as recievers though. -----
The 'slot' is the area between the last offensive lineman on the line of scrimmage and the wide receiver on that side. Anyone who lines up between those two players is called a slotback.

Is Reggie Bush a slot back for the New Orleans Saints?
Well, in the past he has been listed as a running back. Now technically a slot back is a running back. Just as a fullback, halfback, and tailback are all listed under the general heading of running back. That being said, the slot in today's game is used like a WR so although its origins are as a RB, it is no longer really used that way except in the single wing formations (i.e. Wildcat). There are rumors coming out of New Orleans that Bush will be moved to Slot back primarily, but he will still get some carries from the tailback spot as well. So, is he a slot back? Hard to say. He will line up in the slot some, so I suppose on the downs where he lines up in the slot he is a slot back. But when he lines up at tailback he is a tailback. Remember slot back, tailback, quarterback, etc. are all names of positions on the field. So, when Ronnie Brown lines up at quarterback, technically for that play he is the quarterback. Thus, the answer to your question can only be given on a play by play basis. Hope this helps.
