With so many football plays and drills to choose from, this is a good one for defender pass recognition. Understanding the kinds of pass patterns that are coming is a good drill to learn for linebackers and defensive backs.
What you need – You can run this as a skeleton drill – linebackers and defensive backs on defense, and a QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, and 1 TE.
How this drill works – On each snap, the defense should get into their coverage, and then they need to call out Pass!, and then if they can identify the route the offense is going to run (screen, hook, post, etc), then they should.
This will help the other football players on the team to read and recognize what is going to happen on this play, and they can get in better position to make a play.
Result – Pass recognition will help all of the players in the secondary area.
