Hey,

OVR - Overall, the overall generalized ability of the player.
SPD - Speed, how fast the player is in a straight line, think 40 yard dash.
TLB - Tackle Break, Ability to shed a tackle, or bounce off a tackler.
FUM - Fumble, Ability to NOT fumble.
CAT - Catch, Ability to Catch a pass.
BLK - Block, Ability to block.
THA - Throwing Accuracy, How accurate passes are.
KPV is actually KPW - Kick Power, Similar to Throwing Power, but for kicking and punting.
KAC - Kick Accuracy, How accurate a kick/fieldgoal will be.
BLB - Block Break, meaning the ability to shed a blocker and move away from the block.
TKL - Tackle, Ability to tackle the ball carrier.
THP - Throwing Power, How strong the pass will be thrown, or how far a pass can be thrown.
FIT - Fitness, In most games Fitness or Injury are the same thing, I'm going to say it's the same here, especially since there is the Endurance attribute. So this would be how resistant the player is from being injured.
AWR - Awareness, How quickly the player recognizes what is happening during a play, or play understanding.
AGI - Agility, how much lateral movement a player has, or the ability to avoid tackles, or move away from another player.
COV - Coverage, Ability to cover a receiver, might also include ability to make interceptions, but that might also fall to the Catch attribute.
HTP - Hit Power, How hard a player hits when they go for a tackle.
END - Endurance, How quickly a player tires or becomes fatigued.

Hidden during game play, only viewable in editor.

DSC - Discipline, I'm going to say this is a multi function attribute where it helps the player from making mistakes or causing penalties, but also works with Awareness to help react to a play as it unfolds.

Dev team please correct any that are wrong, but I've been playing games like this since the 90s and watching football my entire life. These make sense based on that.

Important attributes by posistion...

QBs - THA, THP
RBs - SPD, TLB
WR - CAT, SPD
TE - CAT, BLK
OL - BLK, AGL
DL - TCK, BLB
LB - TCK, COV
DB - COV, SPD
K - KAC, KPW
P - KPW, KAC

Note, in most games of this type, Awareness effects everything that happens, so AWR is important for all positions.

Take care,
