Linebacker Drills

"The modern linebacker combines the strength of a big defensive back with the hitting and intensity already associated with the position."

"Good, hard, clean aggressive tackling is a skill possessed by every good linebacker. Nothing can fire up a defensive team quicker than a linebacker's hard tackle that stops a ball carrier in his tracks."

Tom Bass, Play Football The NFL Way

If you can't find the football drills: look to the left, click on Agilitis, Runstopping, Passrush, Tackling or Intercepzion to get to the corresponding Linebackers Drills. Under the clicked menu-item you will see links to the actual drills for that category.

Your Comment I'm new to this site. Where are the drills? All I see are books and videos to buy.

Hello, the main problem that I have with my kids is that once the running back gets into the secondary, they get nervous about overplaying the runner.What can I do to get them to settle down a bit so they can focus more on the development of the play.
