Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology
Derived from the verb 'sack' (meaning to plunder or to dismiss from employment), combined with the agent suffix '-er'. The root traces back through Old English and Old French 'saccier' from Latin 'saccus', originally referring to a bag, which historically evolved into plundering a town (taking everything into bags) or discharging a worker. In American football terminology, it specifically denotes a defensive player who tackles the quarterback behind the line of scrimmage.
