Captain America is the leader of the group when they are battling evil forces such as Hydra. Much like when the Longhorns take the field, they are led by their captain Sam Ehlinger. No question the easiest comparison to make of the group of heroes. Ehlinger as the quarterback is the leader of the offense and the leader of team.

Thor is the god of thunder and uses the lightning in his attacks. Caden Sterns fills this role well. He brings the thunder when he flies in for a big hit. He can also be as quick as lightning whether it’s flying through the air for an interception or jumping over people to block a field goal attempt. Caden Sterns can be an “electric” player on defense.
