Wing-T Waggle
Wing-T Waggle shows Buck Sweep and Trap before the quarterback keeps the ball and boots away from the flow. Both guards pull to protect him while the tight end, fullback and split end stretch the defense at three levels.
Part of the Waggle play concept.
The call

| Backside guard | pull to the boot side and seal the edge defender. |
| Center | pass block the nose (N). |
| Playside guard | pull to the boot side to lead block for the quarterback against the first pursuing linebacker. |
| Playside tackle | pass block the tackle (T). |
| Tight end | drag across the formation underneath, sitting down and turning back to the quarterback. |
| Quarterback | reverse pivot, fake the sweep, and bootleg away from flow. |
| Fullback | fake the trap, then release to the flat in front of the boot as the checkdown. |
| Halfback | run the buck sweep path to draw defensive flow. |
| Wingback | block the end (E) on the backside edge. |
| Split end | clear the boot side deep. |
Run it with
- Buck sweepThe waggle is the sweep, kept. It only works after the sweep has made the defense commit.
- TrapThe trap pulls the linebackers forward, which is what empties the space the boot throws into.
