Okay the next football position we are going to go over is wide receiver. In this position details we are going to go over the 5 yard bump rule with the defensive back. The defensive back can only bump you within a 5 yard radius after that you are free to go and run as freely as possible as you can without him interrupting you. Now, he is going to be on you but still after that 5 yard bump you can run as freely as possible as you want to. You are simply going to plant as a wide receiver does, make sure your quarterback is in tone with you and the route that you are going to run and you go and run and you can be as defensive as you want to be by bumping a defensive back off of you when he bumps you and after that it is off to the races for a touchdown.
