• Move to square stance 5 yards deep, with I/S foot to O/S foot of WR. • Responsible to get a jam and reroute on #1. • Vs. pass, work laterally in the direction of receiver’s release. Do not crossover.
Vs. Outside Release – Keep square and shuffle laterally outside and force WR flat. Force him as wide as possible. Post outside arm and zone turn inside. Be sure to carry him with vision on the QB to shrink the void between you and the safety.
Vs. Inside Release – Shuffle laterally inside for 3 steps. If WR continues inside, do not chase, he has rerouted himself. After 3 steps, hinge at 45 degree angle working to get width and depth. Corner must run with wheel routes. Be alert for “opposite color” as you squeeze and hinge.
Vs. China – Hinge to sideline to get width and depth to get under the corner route by #2.

Aiming point is half way between the college numbers and hash.
Outside Release by #1 – SA works to his aiming point. If QB is looking to your side, SA may have to widen. If QB is looking away, squeeze to the innermost half of your zone.
Vs. Inside Release by #1 – SA squares up and works straight back with vision on QB. If QB is looking away, squeeze to the innermost half of your zone.
If #1 eliminates himself by running a shallow crossing route, SA can squeeze to outside shoulder of #2.
