Over The Shoulder Drill
Over The Shoulder Drill- This drill is a catching exercise meant to increase players comfort levels with catching passes that are over the shoulder rather than right in front. Receivers, running backs, and defensive backs should practice this drill.
Have a quarterback and a player line up on the same line. The player will run out 15 yards and the quarterback will simply lob the ball over the players head. Take reps with the quarterback on both the left and right side to practice turning back in different directions. Remember to always look back towards the receiver. For added practice add a trailing defender.
