Bootleg Keep Pass Left

Quarterback fakes the dive and rolls out with a run-pass option to throw or run.

Concept: Tight end blocks then releases to the flat as an outlet while the quarterback reads the contain defender.

14U — Introduce: Learn the footwork and the primary read; protect first, then complete the easy throw. Add the fake/mesh — and a counter off the very same look. Add the play-action throw off this run action. Run it fast both directions and check into it by defensive look.

How to teach it

  • 1Tight end blocks a beat, then releases to the flat as the QB's primary outlet.
  • 2QB reads the contain defender: if he crashes, keep it; if he sits, throw the flat.
  • 3Sell the dive fake fully before rolling to make the run-pass option honest.

Common mistakes to fix

  • !QB commits to run or pass too early — teach him to read the contain man before deciding.
  • !TE releases too fast and doesn't help the edge — time the block-then-release.
