Madden 15 Controls – How To Swat

Swatting in Madden 15 has moved from the LB/L1 buttons last year, over to the right side this year and is now RB/R1. Swatting is very important when a pass is just out of range to go for the interception. Make sure to use defensive assist this year, which is now LB/L1. Defensive assist is perfect for newer players who are trying to user control an LB in coverage for the first time. 

Pro Tip: You can also try and strip the ball on defense with the RB/R1 button!
