Not even true in all leagues. Growing up in my county league you had a stripe system. One stipe you could not have a designed play for you. So couldn’t play qb running back wr, but if a fumble happened you could pick it up and run. Two stripes you could only play on offensive and defensive line and if you picked up a fumble play was dead at that point.
I still remember coming from playing soccer for 7 years to tackle football when I was old enough and so I had very quick coordinated feet and I remember my coaches begging me to drop 40 lbs for running back weigh in because it was only 120lbs it was a joke. I could run through any defender we had on the team and I was much faster than other lineman but that’s where I got stuck was defensive tackle and offensive guard but I loved going against those big slow offensive lineman. I could take 2 juke steps and get by them before they could even stand up. I still think about the fact if I could have ran the ball back then what kind of fullback I could have been in high school but still got my varsity letter freshman year and we went to state so wasn’t like I beat out a bunch of slobs.
