Running Back Four-Cone Distraction Drill

The purpose of the distraction drill is to improve concentration under pressure.

Create a box with four cones five yards apart. One player is the defender and another is the receiver. The defender can push, hold, and distract the receiver in any way.

The receiver must stay square, but try to move and ensure the reception. Focus on the quarterback, despite the distractions.
