Speed Option Pass

X’S & O’S: SPEED OPTION PASS was first published by AFCA Insider in conjunction with Just Play Sports Solutions. 

This Speed Option Pass is an example of one of the most successful plays in football. It’s an exceptional play to put into your playbook. The concept and the scheme are simple, and the play requires very little teaching. On top of that, the play is not tied to any given system.
