A wrap tackle is a technique used in American football and other contact sports to bring down an opponent. In this maneuver, the player approaches the ball carrier and wraps their arms around the opponent's body, securing a firm grip. This helps to control the opponent's movement and prevent them from escaping. The wrap tackle is considered safer than other tackling methods, as it reduces the risk of head injuries. By keeping the head up and using the arms to secure the tackle, players can minimize the chance of collisions that could lead to concussions or other injuries.
