Sprint Right Option

We have been a West Coast Wing-T team for the past five years. We have had great success during that time in
converting two point plays. The play we have had most of our success with is Sprint Rt Option. The Packers
and Forty-Niners also use this route in short yardage situations.

PHILOSOPHY
We are trying to outflank the linebacker that is assigned to cover F man to man. We will accomplish this by
motioning our F across the formation, snapping the ball before the backer can switch with the SS, and running a
“rub” with our Y. We believe that by using these techniques, we will free F against man to man or stretch the
CB if they are four across the board and R will come open.

PLAYSIDE RULES
REC ROUTE
R Choice
Coaching Point: We will flank our right wingback out to a split receiver position. He will align 12 yards from
the Y. We want him to get an outside release and get to one yard from the back of the end zone. Float—find
the hole in the zone. Think inside.

REC ROUTE
Y Barrier Choice
Coaching Point: Get an outside release. Look for man coming across with F. Pivot and “rub” this man. Allow
F to gain separation from the backer. Set up about 5 yards deep in the end zone.

REC ROUTE
F Flat
Coaching Point: Come in motion. On the snap of the ball, you should just be getting to the playside tackle.
Take an angle that will allow you to be one yard deep in the end zone while getting separation from the backer.
Get your head around and find the ball.
BACKSIDE RULES
REC ROUTE
L Post
Coaching Point: Get alive under the goalpost. Be ready for a jump ball if playside receivers are covered. Do
not cross the playside upright.

REC ROUTE
X Dig
Coaching Point: Run a Dig route on the backside. Do not cross the backside pylon.

QUARTERBACK
The motion should tell you if it is man or zone. If the backer bumps over to cover F, you should be
thinking man to man and be looking for F to outflank the backer. At this point, we have seen the following
things happen:

(1) He will come clean—Get him the ball

(2) The corner will drop down on him—Get ball to R

(3) Both the SS and B will fight over the Y to cover F—Get ball to Y.
(4) Everybody covers and QB runs the ball.

This play is an excellent short yardage concept. It can be use on the goal line as a two -point play, or in the
open field on 3rd and short.
