This is a basic [tag]football[/tag] pass with an extra move that will help gain yards. It is a basic hook move that all offensive players should learn and use as one of their [tag]football offense plays[/tag].
What you need – You can put your quarterbacks in one line (to alternate throwing this pattern) and your receivers in another. Or, you can have two quarterbacks working side by side, with one line of receivers to the right of them (for one QB), and another receiver to the left of them (for the other QB).
How this drill works – Upon the snap of the ball, the receivers will run 10 yards and then stop and step back 2 yards toward the QB. This is the hook pattern. The QB will throw the ball to them, the receiver will use the catch, tuck and tap, and then give a quick quarter-turn one way, then go the other.
This is a fake and turn the other way for all receivers. Both receivers and quarterbacks should switch sides for receiving and throwing.
Result – This is a basic maneuver for receivers to use on this pattern, and one of the most common patterns QB’s will throw. It is good to learn the timing (for QB’s) and the turn for receivers.
