Football Shoulder Pads

Skill vs. all-purpose shoulder pads

Skill pads are low-profile and light for quarterbacks, receivers and defensive backs who need range of motion. All-purpose pads add coverage for players who block and tackle, like linebackers and running backs. Linemen typically wear the bulkiest pads.

Shoulder pads are sized by shoulder width and player weight. Shop youth shoulder pads or adult shoulder pads.
