Texas

The Texas tag marks concepts built around the classic Texas route: an angle route out of the backfield or slot that stems inside then breaks back across the linebacker's leverage, usually paired with a clearout vertical or dig behind it. Across 4 formations and 15 sets, from Singleback Y Left Slot to Shotgun Empty Chips Quads, these 16 plays give you a reliable man beater against matched linebackers while the deep shell gets stretched by the complementary routes. Filter by Texas when you want built-in answers to man coverage blitzes without hot routing every snap, since the angle route already sits in the throwing window versus 0 and 1 high looks.
