Defensive Line Jab Step and Throw

Written by Glazier Football | Dec 23, 2019 7:00:00 AM

Jab step forward under control, making contact with your hands on the blocker's shoulders.

Push off with your inside foot, sliding laterally and forward to the outside of the blocker while throwing him off to the inside with your hands. Continue your pass rush past the blocker to the quarterback.

Note: Any combination of the above techniques can be used. The defensive lineman must adopt a combination that most suits his abilities.
