What is the primary coverage style for a cornerback?

  • Zone Coverage

  • Blitz Coverage

  • Man-to-Man

  • Prevent Defense

Answer

Zone coverage is the primary coverage style for a cornerback. In zone coverage, the cornerback is responsible for defending a specific area of the field, rather than a specific receiver. This allows the cornerback to stay in position and react to the quarterback's throws, rather than having to follow a receiver all over the field.
