How does the LB Spy function in this game? Is it a QB Read based on Man Awr or a shallow Zone Awr instead?

In discord Corndog says it functions like IRL... that would make me assume it's Man Awareness based, but game logic can be a whole other ball game which is why I'm asking.
"In American football, a spy is a defensive player assigned to cover an offensive backfield player man-to-man when they are expected to engage in a running play, but the offensive player does not run with the ball immediately.
This strategy is generally used with "dual-threat" quarterbacks who may be expected to run on their own after expected passing plays break down, with the defensive player floating near the line of scrimmage, following the quarterback's movements.
Spies are also sometimes known as "keys". Generally, spies are linebackers."

Corndog went further to say it wasn't Man either.... so game mechanic wise I'm not sure how it functions. The new zone plays I suggested using it were basically to help zone from soph to mid-pro to aid in inside rushing by leaving the MLB in a better position vs dropping back into pass coverage. I'm just curious as to what SA's would function, but it appears none. Also, if the QB hands the ball off, does some sort of Awr check take over to see if he keys in on the run or does he still watch the QB?
