Maybe not officially defined however it is possible by rule to be either a lineman, a back or neither. There is only one player legally allowed to be there and that is a player in position to take a hand to hand snap. "No man's land" is this small area of limbo, that while many officials don't strictly enforce, does exist per the rules.
