DB High Shoulder Drill
- Coaches should instruct defensive backs to eyeball the receiver's near hip to determine the route's direction.
- When a receiver's hip moves toward the defender, it indicates the route is rolling over or through, requiring the defender to close the space and attack the hip.
- If the receiver's hip moves away from the defender, it signals a vertical route that the defender must chase to reach the catch point.
- Defenders should maintain proper footwork and spacing, utilizing techniques such as the kickstep and punch during the play.
- Defensive backs must fight force with force by placing their hands on the receiver if the receiver's hands are on them.
- Players should be violent at the reception point to effectively knock the football away from the receiver.
