Bench

The Bench tag groups Madden NFL plays built around the Bench concept, where receivers break toward the sideline on quick out-breaking routes that attack flat and curl defenders, often paired with complementary digs, curls, pivots, or switch releases. It covers 64 plays across 7 formations and 42 sets, from Singleback Ace Close and Shotgun Bunch to I Form Pro, so you can filter for variations like Bench Switch, Bench X Dig, and Mtn Bench that fit your personnel and play-calling tendencies. Competitive players use this tag to build reliable man beaters and Cover 3 flood looks, then hot route the backside to stress user-controlled defenders and punish soft sideline coverage.
