Lincoln Riley Stick-Nod

Stick-Nod serves as Lincoln Riley's red-zone and seam double-move constraint. The inside receiver stems vertical to 5 yards, fakes an outside stick route to freeze the underneath defender, then bursts vertically up the seam.

Part of the Stick-Nod play concept.

Stick-Nod: Spread 3x1 Trips Stick-Nod. Y fakes the 5-yard outside stick route, then bursts up the seam into the end zone.
