Coaches Drill — Redirect on Cut
Here’s a simple but powerful drill.
Redirection + pursuit skills:
📋 Setup:
1️⃣ Line your guys up in their normal front.
2️⃣ Coach stands in the backfield — D-linemen move when the coach moves.
⚡ Execution:
On the snap, D-linemen explode off the ball — no cheating, full speed get-off.
Within the first 2 steps, coach takes off one way (like a RB cutting).
DL must redirect IMMEDIATELY → sprint to the sideline.
Rotate the next group right behind them and repeat.
🔥 Why It Works:
✅ Trains redirection skills
✅ Builds pursuit down the line
✅ Forces DL to read & react instantly to a ball carrier
Run it fast, keep the energy high, and emphasize flat pursuit instead of rounding out.
👉 Coaches: would you use this more as a redirection drill or a pursuit drill?
