Zone Read Slice & Arc

A well-designed play that is an Inside Zone Read at its core. Pre-Snap, the offense motions the F to get a secondary rotation (helping create numbers on the backside). Coming from a pistol set, it gives the backside End more bait to crash, creating a pull read. The Y comes across the formation (looking like split zone) but then Arc Releases with the F up to the second level. The QB can pull the ball and follow the lead blockers to an outnumbered Alley.
