It refers to a defensive secondary player, usually the last line of defense before open field.
It also refers to a scoreing occurence, where a QB or other offensive player is tackled/runs out of bounds in their own end zone. It's worth 2 points for the defensive team, and they get the ball back as well.

When a team's ball carrier is tackled in his own end zone or steps out of his end zone. It's worth two points and the team then has to kick the ball (usually a punt) from its own 20 yard line.
