Watch as Coach John Reid explains and shows practice video of this tackling drill using medicine balls and shields. The medicine ball represents a cut block, and the tackler uses their hands on the cut, then attacks the ball carrier. Coach Reid emphasizes ripping through the blocker and tackling the ball carrier with a good fit, tackling up, and running through.
