Family: Motion/perimeter run

What it is: A receiver goes in fast motion and receives the ball at or near the snap, forcing the defense to adjust in real time.

When to use it: To create horizontal stress, identify man/zone, or get a slot receiver the ball without a downfield throw.

Good against: Heavy boxes, slow linebacker rotations, and defenses that do not bump or spin with motion.

Bad against: Wide edges, physical nickel defenders, and teams that set a hard force player.

Pairs well with: Pairs with inside zone, orbit motion, pop pass, and split-flow RPO.
