What Is The Definition Of Bubble Screen In Football?
1. This is an offensive screen pass in football where receivers line up wide on the far right or the far left of the field. When the quarterback snaps the ball, the receiver who is targeted will turn or run towards the quarterback to receive the pass and will then attempt to run upfield after the catch.
The offense will attempt to put as many blockers in front of the receiver after the catch in order to gain as many yards after the catch as possible.
