i need to learn more about football and if i suit my postion
Question
hi i am a freshman this year and im 14, i bench 140 im around 5'4-5'5ish, and i squat 240", i ran the mile in under 5:50mintues and i was wondering if i suit my positon i play running back and defensive end? I am convfused a little about how to be the running back but im starting to learn more about it. People say i am to small for a defensive end but i'm very strong, i can get threw the line very quick and i can pack a punch, but i know other defensive ends for my school are like 6 foot and taller, i dont think i suit the position but i can get threw to the quaterback very quick and i can keep up with almost evry person on my team, so advice would be helpful thanxks, chris
Answer
Chris,
You sound like a candidate for running back or outside backer to me. OB is alot like the DE position but involves some pass coverage where your size would be well suited. Remember your only a freshman and your going to grow, you may grow into the DE position as you get older. Keep working hard as a running back and you will pick up all the little tricks of the position.
Good luck,
Mark
