Do safties cause fumbles, can't recall every seeing one?
If they do, how rare is it?
Cheers

Yes they do.

11:44 1 and 10 to go on opp 18, Cristobal Hurst (OC) snaps the ball to Johannes Miko (QB), who hands off to Dusty Coward (HB/C), this seems to be a run over the left guard, Wa l t e r Bassi (FS/C) goes for the blitz, Pierre Sperry (TE/L) blocks, Dusty Coward (HB/C) fumbles, Wa l t e r Bassi (FS/C) can recover the ball (Big I formation vs. 5-3-3) more

In the game log is reported the SF forced the fumble and recovered it.
But it is really rare.
I do not even know if it happens only when they blitz.

Thanks PJ, is it as rare as a SF INT? or rarer?

From Chronicles/Statistical Leaders I chose Elite season 43 regular season.
Supposing and hoping there have not been players position switch since then...
You can find 4 SF int over a total of 457 interceptions and 2 SF fumble forced over a total of 116 fumbles

I have 3 senior SFs aged 31, 30, 31 Their career INTs are 4,5,3
I think that supports the general conclusion that SFs do not catch many. I had even spent time on training catching for these guys. Seems they were not very good at their lessons

Intercepting is not like catching
The QB is supposed to throw to his teammates WR/TE
Anyway I spend time to train catching for all my backfield as well
I have got plenty of hope.

My guess is you'll only see safety Ints on deep throws, and that's why there's so few? I suppose one way to check would be peeking at the distance on those rare SF Ints.

But I've always assumed that's why there's only a handful, since *most* managers will never throw deep distance, except in the most desperate of late game situations?

I had only two (both in my favour luckily)
1 in S36
I-formation vs 3-3-4 1&10 FS int
1 in S38
SG4WR vs 3-3-5 3&17 FS int
SF int are so rare that trying to make a statistics seems impossible.
Your thought is really logic anyway.
