Wide Receiver Drills

With Curtis Johnson

New Orleans Saints Wide Receivers Coach, former University of Miami Wide Receiver Coach

Coach Johnson demonstrates wide receiver drills that improve and promote finger dexterity, hand-eye coordination, a lower center of gravity, and proper stance and start. Johnson points out common errors and incorrect techniques while he teaches the proper way to catch the football. This football video covers wide receiver drills for running a hitch, curl, in, out, fade, post, stop & go, fly, streak and comeback routes. These drills stress the important factors of the stance and start by incorporating the receiver's strengths. Johnson uses cone drills to lower the receiver's center of gravity and improve the receiver's ability to maneuver, turn, and change speed. This football DVD teaches how to beat press coverage by using a variety of release moves: stutter step, hard inside, hands, speed-off, hesitation, slam, turn body, and double moves. Film clips demonstrate each move and route to exhibit their effectiveness in game speed. These are great drills to incorporate in wide receiver workouts and football practice.
