What You’ll Learn
The video introduces three football drills to become a better quarterback. Watch how student-athletes perform each drill with instruction focused on proper leg and foot positioning, balance, and body control to improve accuracy and drive the football. Former NFL quarterback and current IMG Academy football coach Shaun King breaks down each of these three drills designed to develop skillful QBs:
- Static Base Drill
- Movement Base Drill
- Figure 8 Drill
The Static Base Drill that focuses on the “power position” with the back leg, helping to develop the necessary torque to add velocity to your passes.
The Movement Base Drill helps create muscle memory for the “base position” with the legs and feet.
