DB INT for instance. And recievers should also get a designation to go with all their receptions as to how many DB's. Having a receiver with 78 receptions looks good but how would it look if he had 11 DB's right after the REC stat? Have a scorer in the booth like they do in baseball who determine hits and errors.
