ABOUT DEFENSIVE BACKS IN AMERICAN FOOTBALL Even though defensive backs (DBs) are often among the smallest players on the field, their impact on the game is huge. Teams without good defensive backs, are easily victimized by their opponents passing attack. On the other hand, great DBs make life really hard for an offence. Since the threat of game changing interceptions, can scare a quarterback from throwing deep, and cause an offensive coach to be more conservative. WHAT IT TAKES BE BE A GREAT DEFENSIVE BACK To be a defensive back you must be fast and athletic especially the cornerbacks. You have to have ’fluid’ hips, since CBs start every play running backward (backpedaling) but turn and run with the WRs during the play. The corners also have to be confident individuals, since they are virtually alone against their opponent, and any mistake will cost their team 6 points. They have to believe that they can cover their man, and even if the get beat, they must recover quickly – because they will have to cover the same man again on the next drive. The safeties are usually a bit bigger than the CBs, to help defend the running game and hammer WRs. They also have to be good tacticians, to read what the QB sees, and predict the play as it unfolds – then they can break up plays. Finally it is essential that DBs are secure tacklers they may not always punish ball carriers like linebackers, but they have to bring their man down. Failing to do so (especially the safeties, hence the name) will often result in a touchdown for the other team. There are two distinctly different defensive backs: Cornerbacks (CB) and Safeties (S).

"Processing speed is a cognitive ability that could be defined as the time it takes a person to do a mental task. It is related to the speed in which a person can understand and react to the information they receive, whether it be visual (letters and numbers), auditory (language), or movement. In other words, processing speed is the time between receiving and responding to a stimulus." - https://www.cognifit.com/science/cognitive-skills/processing-speed
As coaches, we are always looking for drills to increase our dexterity in the art of flag pulling. The more we practice on pulling flags the better our teams become. Here is a simple yet effective drill to enhance your flag pulling ability. Remember, don't reach, for flags. Square up, stay low, and use both arms to wrap and pull.
Shakes, feet, wiggle, jukes, the ability to quickly change directions, is required for a high level of play at cornerback. Covering routes, making tackles in space, and returning picks, punts, and kicks all require an agile player.
In this video, we work former Texas Tech cornerback / safety and pro footwork and agility trainer Dorian Crawford to break down how to get into a proper stance and transition into a backpedal as a defensive back. Whether it's at the high school football, college football, or NFL level, it's crucial to master the basics.
A proper stance can put you off to a great start vs a wide receiver when you are playing press man coverage. DB Guru Chad Wilson from All Eyes DB Camp shows you the 3 keys to a proper stance when playing press man.
Here's a few drills to get your feet quick and explosive like some of the NFL's best!
A number of defensive backs can do the drill at once. From a good starting position – knees bent at a 45-degree angle, weight on the balls of the feet, head up, and back straight – a coach will give the command to begin the backpedal. Defensive backs work on pushing off the front foot and continuing the backpedal. Coaches stress keeping the chest over the feet as well as telling players to keep their feet close to the ground. Defensive backs should also use their arms just like they were running forward. The drill can progress from half speed to full speed to help players perfect the backpedal.
