The best running backs in the game know where to run, are highly competitive, and are fast on their feet. They trust their feet and keep their vision focused ahead rather than looking down at their feet. With IMG Academy's How-To football drill videos, our coaches focus on the proper training needed to perfect your vision, balance, and ability to see the play as a running back.
In this video, you will be introduced to three football drills to become a better running back. Watch how student-athletes perform each drill with instruction on proper footwork and keeping the football high and tight on the body. Each exercise is broken down to provide an in-depth tutorial within these three specific drills for running backs:
During the Bag Agility Drill, players test their footwork while keeping their eyes forward and looking down the field. The Cone Drill teaches proper footwork as the body changes direction while navigating through the cones and trying not to overextend the legs. And, the Pass Pro Minor Drill focuses on the ability to move the feet without getting overextending them as well as staying in front of the defender.
