Wide Reciever Help
Question
Hi Louis,
I'm not sure if this is up your alley or not, but i was hoing you could help me. I am currently paying high school football in my juniot year.
I play wide reciver, but am unfortunatly 4th string. I have more raw talent than any of the other recievers (faster, better breakaway speed) but have literally no hands. I'm basically Randy Moss who cant catch. If i could improve my hands i could move into the #1 or 2 spot.
I was just wondering if there are any drills or thing slike that that could helo me.
Thank you for the time,
Adam
Answer
Dear Adam Groesbeck,
Here is a list of drill you can work on. You will need someone to play Q-B.
1.One handed catch, over your left shoulder (right hand only).
2.One handed catch, over your right shoulder (left hand only).
3.Two handed catch over your right shoulder.
4.Two handed catch over your left shoulder.
Always catch the ball with your hands only.Try this for about aweek, 30-40 minutes a day. Short passes only. At first you will drop a lot of passes but don't give up. When you are ready, move on to ( a little) longer passes.
Let me know how you are doing after a week.
Your Friend, Coach Louis.
