Run it with

  • TrapThe fullback's answer to the jet. The wing runs the same full-speed motion and does not get the ball, and the fullback takes it inside off the pulling guard. In this package, trap comes off buck action rather than jet motion.
  • WaggleThe quarterback's answer to the jet. He shows the handoff to the motion, keeps it, and boots away from a defense that has chased the edge all night. In this package, waggle comes off buck action rather than jet motion.
