All right, you know what time it is,
it's time for the NFL way to play awards field
by Gatorade. Uh Now these awards recognize players who
lead by example and impact the game by showing off
proper technique on the field. This week's NFL winner
is Eagles defensive back, Cooper DeJean. Now take
a look at this play from the rookie on King
Derrick Henry. Now, the way to play point
of emphasis is Cooper's body position in space. He's
low and loaded in the, in, in,
in a great position to make a tackle. I
want you to take a look at this quarterback Lamar
Jackson checks the ball down to the running back and
Cooper is working to the flat in coverage and he
changes direction once he identifies and he sprints to make
the hit and look at this and Dee Dele Derek
Henry before the big man can even get moving.
Cooper is outweighed by more than 50 pounds but still
, he does a tremendous job in keeping up and
keeping his feet on the ground. Uh Now he
finishes by driving through his target. It is proper
way right there. I mean, can you imagine
50 pounds lighter than Derek Henry. And again,
Dee deletes King Henry. I see you. Cooper
. All right. Let's go to Friday Night Lights
in partnership with Huddle. The high school way to
play award goes to teammates Tanner Perry and Caden Knighton
out of Paul's Valley High School in Oklahoma. Now
, I want you to check out this right here
, like check the offset running back to the left
, right there. Defense is bringing pressure and Caden
does a good job with the pass protection forcing the
defender to stay outside. Now, the quarterback terror
he spins to create space but he's under duress from
more defenders. Here. You see him kind of
move around. He just throws up, he heats
the ball up to a calm uh and in position
, Caden as an outlet. Now, once he
gets the ball, oh he go, he puts
his foot in the ground. He's out for six
and way to play right there. Hannah and Caden
, you guys were working together, man. That's
great team work right there and great touchdown. And
finally in partnership with RCX, our flag way to
play. Winner is Connor Wood from mentor Ohio.
I want you to take a look at the young
running back right here. This is so cute.
You're gonna love this. Watch what Connor does.
He does a great job utilizing his speed here.
He is showing off his feet. I want you
to take a look at this. He's kind of
moving around. This is just athleticism, he's shaking
and baking, he's zigzagging right here. You know
, he's going to go back to school and this
is gonna be a part of story time. He
should do a whole book report on being able to
move around like that. He finishes right there on
the touchdown. I see you young fella. That's
the way to play Connor. Now, for all
of these amazing way to play examples, the NFL
Foundation will be awarding thousands of dollars in equipment grants
through USA football to support youth and high school football
programs. We'll announce another group of winners right here
next week.
