After watching many seasons of football, the heroes of Overwatch have decided to take their talents to the football field rather than the battlefield. We’ve broken down a few characters and the position that they will be playing.
Tracer: Her unmatched speed combined with jukes that could break the ankles off of the best of defenders makes her an easy candidate for a slot receiver. Move over Cole Beasley and Jarvis Landry, the cavalries here.
Winston: Mario Williams? Ndamukong Suh? No, the next best defensive lineman of all time will easily be Winston. He has the ability to knock back lineman so hard that they might end up sacking their own quarterback.
Pharah: Have you ever seen a Hail Mary get caught halfway before it is supposed to come down to Earth? Well, neither have we, but we are excited to see it happen. Hey Drew Brees, I think we found your new favorite wide receiver.
Reaper: If you had a childhood, you remember the Hocus Pocus from Backyard Football. Where out of nowhere your receiver will go from the line of scrimmage to about 40 yards down field. Get ready for this trick to be used in the NFL with Reaper.
Bastion: “He’s got a cannon!” Yeah, literally. We might just see a 99 yard touchdown pass… in the air.
Zarya: What better way to defend your precious quarterback than throwing a big shield around him so he can throw in peace?
Lúcio: Although he may not be strong, his ability to bounce off walls, or linemen, in his pursuit for the end zone may make him one of the best running backs of all time. Good luck catching him on the outside when he amps up his speed boost.
