New Abilities/X-Factors And Players Revealed In Season 2 Sneak Peeks

I've seen a lot of talk about the new players since the reveal first came out...

• 88 OVR Aaron Donald
• 88 OVR Jason Kelce
• 89 OVR Travis Kelce (Level 36 Reward)
• 90 OVR Micah Parsons
• 91 OVR Randy Moss (Looks like this cards starts out at 86 OVR and can be upgraded similar to how Jalen Ramsey started at 83 OVR and could be upgraded to 89 OVR)

...but I haven't seen that much talk on the new Abilities/X-Factors that were revealed

• Deep Elite (Ability): Improved catching on deep passes
• 3rd Down Threat (Ability): Better 3rd Down mid-range catching vs single coverage
• Linchpin (Ability): Stronger blocking from all offensive linemen
• Interior Threat (Ability): Dominant pass rush moves from the interior
• Dual Threat (X-Factor): When activated, players have a higher chance to defeat pass blocks and disrupt catches

Are these just new names for what we already have in MUT, or are these actually new abilities/X-Factors?

These are just combos of already existing abilities pretty much. Interior threat only one that interests me.

Yeah what I said in the main thread. 

Xfactors with a little more sprinkled in.

Deep elite seems like just a combo of deep out and deep in elite. 

3rd down threat. It will be interesting to see if the perks of this ability are worth it. I can see it being too situational to be worth spending ap on since it only boosts one player

Linchpin could be good especially if it practically gives the entire oline something like secure protector. Definitely one I will be interested in experimenting with.

Interior threat just seems like edge threat for interior players. It could be good depends on if we get abilities that practically counter it like we did last year with secure protector.

Dual threat. Seems decent if it's on a defender who would make good use of it in your scheme. Though I wonder what the activation requirements for it will be.

That moss is a must have

Was thinking the same. Hopefully these are worth it.
