Description

The roll-out is one of the most important QB tools in flag football. This drill builds the footwork and discipline to set feet before throwing — eliminating the common habit of throwing on the run across the body.

Instructions

  1. QB takes snap from center.
  2. QB rolls out to the right (or left) along a curved path.
  3. QB gains depth and angles toward the sideline.
  4. QB plants and sets feet before throwing.
  5. QB throws to a receiver or cone target downfield.
  6. Alternate roll-out direction each rep.

Points to Stress

  • Roll out with purpose — gain depth, don't drift sideways.
  • Set your feet every single time — no throwing off the back foot.
  • Don't throw across your body — reset your shoulders toward the target.
  • Lead the receiver with the throw.
