hey what's up everyone morey croson here and today we're going to be going over
how to have a quick release when throwing the football and let's start the video right now
this is the newest edition of the performance side reach your individual goals you don't
want to talk about straight line speed we also want to talk about your delivery quick
we break down your video let's make you into the quarterback i know you can become
okay so what we're going to do here is we're going to go over a couple drills couple exercise couple
ways to help you and being able to get the ball out of your hands faster it's really going to
put a big focus on the load going to put a big focus on the wrist position and if this is one
of the first times you watch one of our videos i really recommend you go ahead and click the thumbs
up down below subscribe to the channel we're constantly posting videos that talk about how
you can improve your overall quarterback mechanics be able to throw the ball further more accurately
how to be able to better utilize your whole body and the throw so let's go ahead and hop right
into it so big thing that i would say here when it comes to the release and i think what's important
is you know we want to be able to have this action on the football as the ball is coming out of your
hand okay and so just even working on this right and just being able to get that action as you're
releasing is going to be the first thing that i would start off with when it comes to improving
your release time the next thing that i would do and i'm going to use a another video camera here
so uh when we're going through it is really working on the load okay so we want to be
able to do with the load is one we don't want to let that nose of football get away okay we
want to be able to get the nose of football either going straight back slightly in or slightly down
main thing is we got to keep this wrist position neutral okay so when we go here we start to break
the the wrist okay we can keep it slightly broken inwards here so when i go here you know it's not
perfectly aligned you can see how it ends up being slightly bent here right but we don't want to end
up really bending at the thumb you never really want to bend thumb side here we really want to
be able to the best of our ability uh maintain more of that around position when it comes to
releasing fast okay when we start to being able to throw the ball further we do want to get that that
a little bit more of a thumb side bend but for the sake of the video if we end up throwing the
ball with a lot of you know time if our release needs to get better we want to try to get rid of
too much bending here and really try to either stay neutral or be able to come down here so
just working on the load would be the second drill that i would say to help improve your release time
the third drill to help you improve your release time is working on being able to get around the
football right so i'm here i'm in my whatever load position i'm going to get into right and i already
have my feet in kind of like a rotated position so my my hips are already kind of coming around so
i'm already in that kind of planet position here and then i'm just going to work on being able to
get that nose of the football around right so i want to be able to work on the release okay i
want to be able to work on my load then i want to work on being able to get from my load to
the release position and try to minimize that as much as possible okay so that would be the third
one that i would say is we're here okay and then the fourth kind of drill and this isn't really a
drill but it's almost like more of a concept more of an idea more of a reason why you're gonna have
a longer release time is that front foot so typically what i see because you know i'm big
on on kind of pushing more of like a and it's a little bit unpopular but to be able to get
a little bit further step right i don't think that having a short step is going to be very effective
i'm bigger on you know get being able to pick up some ground here right but what happens is
a lot of times especially with like deeper throws or when you're really trying to put a
lot on the football so not only is the release long but also the amount of velocity that we
need to be able to put on it ends up being higher then it's one natural to have a little bit longer
release time and a little bit longer stride but it is a problem when you start to take too much time
with that foot off the ground so number four is an issue or it can be a drill is working on
just getting this foot down right step get the foot down step get the foot down so when you get
into your third three step drop whatever step get the foot down okay throwing it to the left step
get the foot down okay so when you guys are end up going with these crazy steps where it's like
out and then in and then throw those guys all end up having longer releases so number four
get your front foot down get that step down okay and you could work on that too right just work on
being able to load and get that step down but that concept is just important so number one
wrist flick number two work on your load okay make sure that we have a good and i just work on this
right like this is how i get and make sure i keep my wrists in neutral number three wrists around
okay number four get that foot down okay i'm going to show you a couple
i'm going to go through a throw just so you can kind of see what my release looks like
