I played Assback in high school. Every time I asked my coach if I could get in the game... he told me to get my ass back on the bench.
monkeynuts76 😂😂😂
Im dead😂😂😂
What a shitty coach. He should have gone back to his car and sat there rethink his coaching for some time.
😂😂
🤣

I wanted to be a halfback and Coach put me at wideout
derrick rose mvp I love shitting on guys that’s my dream position LB
The most satisfying moment in football is when you hit stick someone irl
The best part is when u take a giant dump in the locker room toliet, then call that 💩your life. 😢

Cursed Waifu and bobby w
In high school as soon as I walked in head coach looked at me and said your gonna be a lineman welcome to the team
I played tight end in middle school and pee wee
Paul Miller bruh 😂
feel ya man. feels bad to be fat
Line is the most important position tho 💪
How tall are you? I kinda hope this happens to me (6'2 180 ish pounds) (edit I was a defencive tackle and right tackle but I'm switching to quarterback because I'm good at it)
The next tip should be about weight how to lose maintain and gain weight during the summer
(reply & like this comment to get IKF's attention)
Emperor CJ I see every comment believe it or not lol
Emperor CJ During Summer my coaches host a speed camp it helps maintain and loose weight but also work on skills in the off-season maybe go for a football camp
WR,CB,S or TB,FB,LB
FOr losing weight you have to enter ketosis, essentially stop eating sugar.
Emperor CJ true
i am perfect for left bench
Strong_Gamer maybe you can play watetboy jk
Bruh same
*BEEEEEEEEAAAAAASSSSSTTTTT*
Nah right bench is better
Strong_Gamer Nope. I play waterboy. You get more playing time.
I am starting football this year, thanks for the help. After watching this I'm probably going to be a lineman
These are by far, the best explanations on TH-cam!!
Cornerback gang

That’s sad 😂😂

We gang mossteam
IKF, I play WR and DB right now and am going into my 10th grade season this upcoming season. I wish I could've discovered your channel before my freshman year started. Our team went 0-8 and I never dressed a single game. Our team was so small so we forfeited twice and canceled 2 JV games. lol On JV I got 1 pick, a td rec, and 8 tackles.
Thanks so much bro! I didn’t know which position to work to in middle school so now I know how to train!!!
FINALLY someone who doesn’t think you have to be tall to be a WR
shut up
I’m tall and I play WR (if 5’11 is tall)
[redacted] want a cookie
My team's star wide receiver is 5,8 and he got like 17 touchdowns this season
slatt ehh
Where my running back gang at !?
Alex SAmuels ayyyyy
Was goooood
Lesss goo
All the way
All the way
I played football for as long as I remember and I play Linebacker, Defensive tackle, Offensive Gaurd,and fullback. (If your wondering why I play so many positions it is bc our team is really small and so I play both offense and defense. Plus fullback is just my backup position in case our fullback gets injured.)
Thanks a lot for the video! It was really helpful!
Where are my LineBackers at?
Linebacker is a life style you know I’m the greatest linebacker of all time 57 tackles 7 interceptions 5 star linebacker
Jerry uriostegui shut up🤣🤣🤣
Cloiz ayy linebacker squadddd‼️ which one are you. I’m Rolb
I’m a freshman and start varsity

Free safety's where yall at
Yessir

Best one 💪
Sorry strong saftey
yes sirrrrr
Im a 14 year old freshman, 6’0-6’1 and I’m 179 lbs, this really helped cus i always wanted to join football but finally got the confidence to join this year, I’ll try my best.
I always go at runnin back and wr because I’m speedy and I could catch and power people off of me
Kickers and Punters are people too #4thDownQBGang
Mr. Steal yo Girl lol
Force not really
Force jk
just kicking and maybe speed.
Force yes
I'm 2'4 ".5" pounds I'm gonna play offensive lineman
Jahziel Cavazos 👍🏼👍🏼
Jahziel Cavazos I believe in u😭
desouza isaiah thank you sir 😁
True the Nike alpha TD cleats should work for you
Ur QB is going to be very protected😂💯
using this to learn my second postion since i'm back up QB
i feel like most linebackers wanted to be running back at first and then got out at lb and fell in love with the position
Scary how true this is
Where my Tight Ends at
MoneySign Gaming yoo
MoneySign Gaming can I be tight if I weight 205 as a incoming freshman
Lets goo💪💪🏈🏈😜😜
Jermiah 77 depending on your height and if you have some speed
Tyler Floyd 5’10 but I can still grow just need to lose about 10-15lbs and get faster
no hate but yall shouldnt be listening to someone pointing out the type of position. whatever position you have your heart on go chase that position. dont listen to others and find your own play style.
That’s what I’m trying to say.
Exactly bro
well thats dandy and all but a 300 pound guy playing wide receiver or defensive back isn't very likely to excel. sure try out every position you want but along the way you have to identify your strength and weaknesses for those positions.
Lil leak actually I don't think a 90pound 5'3 guy could be an offensive lineman
I could never be a safety cornerback quarterback runningback or wide receiver even if I tried I'm to big and slow
I’m going to start playing football next year in 8th grade first time and you gave my Hope I’m really short and by you I’m inspired that I can do it
they said devonta smith was too short to play…look where is now,in the NFL
nice bruh i might start next year (freshman year) i have a broken hand rn and haven’t played sports in 18 months due to covid and so outa shape like 5’2 145-150
@Qxzz RBLX literally no one asked
This is very accurate, I’m a peewee running back debatably the best in my conference,and I am also a quarterback soo that was not bad
This year on defense I’m playing safety 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
BlueSharkPuppet & BrayBray13YT! good luck bro
Dominic Gojcaj Thanks 🙏
BlueSharkPuppet & BrayBray13YT! Yeah bruh I’m a free safety for varsity. Just focus and be in the game bruh

My Football season is over but
When I joined football i joined late everyone was already on the A and B team and have their position and this was one of the videos I watched during football season I went from third string running back to starting in my huddle.
I’ve been a linemen all my life and I’ve always been fast and strong for my weight, I’m 15, and ab 5’ 10 and supposed to be at least 6’ 2, i weighed 201 up until a month on March 29th and now on may 1st I’m 189, I’ve been running everyday and my goal weight by 2021 is 160-170 imma update y’all every month until I get there

Thank you I play linebacker now I made the try out
It very helpful information about how the position
you should do:
Cleats for every postions
Oscar Celestino there all the same
Exploding Bullets You could not be more wrong man
Zachary Vaughan they really arent
Oscar Celestino there aren't special cleats
Skill position where low cut cleats all other position wear high cut
Wide receiver nation!!!!!!!! ✊👐
Julian Shipp J.R. I like your picture
I'm learning about football and this information was very helpful.
TE fits me perfect
Right when you said shortest fastest and lightest I knew I was a WR😂
I'm tall and a little heavier and I'm fast agile but I still play WR

Safety position ❗️💪🏾
I'm 5'9 192lbs and this upcoming season will be my first ever (I've started playing in a low division in Sweden). I hope I can play safety. Need to get more agile and a bit heavier prior to the season though. Let's goooo!
How did it go bro I’m around the same height and weight and playing football next season I just don’t know what position
@@salvadormendoza1452
Well, I made the team and was a starter. Good news, right? Well, unfortunately I found that most of my teammates didn't take the sport very seriously. Many people skipped practice and the determination on the field was flat out lacking.
The season start was postponed due to covid and when it actually started I had already quit to focus solely on the gym.
I was 203 lbs when I was the heaviest and now I've cut down to 197.
I might make a return this year but honestly, considering how casual most players are on that team and that they lost every single game, I doubt I will.
What I can tell you though is don't let your size be a limiting factor. It's about heart man, at the very least at this level. Good luck!
@@kallht2079 aye bro can you add my snap so we could talk more smd_1304
@@salvadormendoza1452 Sure, just don't dox me please.
I'm like 5'8 or 5'7 113lbs what should I do bruh smh 8th grade btw
i was backup punt returner, and was starting nose tackle and right guard
I'm a cornerback anyone else
Callum Lewis Safety. Most fun position hands down.
JKI The most ridiculed position too. Dbs take all the wrath of mistakes on D and have the most responsibility
Sean Yea but I mean the plays are the easiest imo and if you have a good coach who explains it well you can execute the plays. I mean I didn't let our best kid on the team get a catch because I followed basic instructions of a play. But, like you said there are consequences if you fail.
Callum Lewis CBForLyfe
Callum Lewis strong safety fuckboiiii ☝
I like the direction you're taking this channel to
I thought it was tide end
Thanks bro I hope the coaches put me on TE but definitely would go for a defense position
I'm the same Ht I've been since the 8th Grade (at 5ft 6in) and didn't start playing Football
until I was a sophomore in HS and while I'm much denser now at 240lbs, I was about 140-150lbs
when I first started playing (and graduated HS at 170lbs) and by some fluke I ended up on the
Offensive Line. While I eventually did get the hang of it at Center I think I would been much better
suited and would have improved and matured much faster and been more productive at a position
like Free Safety and Strong Safety and gradually worked my way to possibly Outsider Linebacker.
Bro you are obese af
What about kickers? #KickersAreHumansToo
False
Lazyness Body type for kickers and punters doesnt matter that much. As long as you have a good kick your good
@@mentallyunstable1573 lies. Punters are really important, they can turn the field really quick which means that they can put the other team on the complete other side of the field (I'm a punter and strong safety)
Like he said about quarter backs, if you can kick be a kicker if you can't kick don't be a kicker
Can u kick? Then be a kicker. If not then who cares😂
5’11, 138 lbs and I play receiver ( freshman )
40 - 4.78
Broad jump - 8’1
Vertical - 29 in
Deontay_36 • I'm 6'5 and 237 I play DE and pretty much anywhere on d-line I'm a Jr in HS
Damn you need to gain a lot of weight
I think u should try to gain a little more weight
I’m a freshman 5’4 135 and play running back who you telling to gain weight!
Deontay_36 • Gain sum muscle and you’ll be great 🤫🐐
Playing next year so this is great because never played before for school with like family yes but not with a team thx
In junior high I was 5'3 (now Im 5,5 boutta go to college in Mexico but cant play cus im a grocery bagger) and used to play CB, it was a pain in the ass to always jump to get to the ball, but coaches always used me as a tackling CB.

Do u fart in the QBs face then call him a fartface?
@SG Zinclol, then he be out for the rest of the season with sprained nostril hairs.
I’m perfect for group 1 and 2 thank you man
Jason Witten is an exception for yards after catch😂. He goes down as soon as he is touched but his hands are great
I’m 5’9 182 I’m legit perfect for DE is my favorite position and that’s where I start. EDIT: I made this comment a year ago, I’m now 5’10 198 slimmer and faster than what I was, I now start for my JV football team at DE /TE and possibly getting moved up to play starting defensive end.
NightNight58 I’m 5’8 212 I play de and dt
You won't get to the pros at that size
NightNight58 I’m 6’1 210 and I’m a linebacker. Specifically ro.
I’m 16 and I’m 6’3 215 and I play de
NightNight58 get like 10 pounds on you and across the rest of your HS career convert most of that to muscle and you could go to college and potentially pro
Dude keep vids like this up thx for the tips 👍🏈
I finished my rookie season at 10 y/o with a ton of hit sticks, 2 sacks, 6 tfl's, and played TE, P, K, C, LG, ROLB, LOLB, MLB, RE, And LE

7"7, 385 playing QB.
Football QB'Z play basketball
sexy sloth it's a joke
Football QB'Z or a lie
5'8 200 pounds actually QB no joke and I play for 7th grade 13 and I throw about 30 to 45 yards is that good and I'm TE
Sciencephile Hot bf try to get at least 55 yards distance for throwing if you want to be qb trust me it helps with accuracy if you throw farther than 30 yards. If you wanna stay TE beef up if you know you are growing. Since you are 13 I'd say you could be a fullback or running back with 5'8" 200 lbs
Great video thank you!
Hey I am in high school (freshman) and I don’t really know what I want to do I want to try fullback but right now I’m playing lineman my attributes are:
Speed: Not as fast as a wide receiver but faster than other linemen
Strength: Deadlift- 185 pounds
Weight: 175 pounds
Height: 5’3
Now that you have an idea of what you should play let me break down the lineman positions.
(For teams with right handed QB)
LT- the best pass blocker. Longer arms, usually one of the strongest
LG- good at pass blocking, and run blocking, one of the quickest line men, and quick enough to trap block
C- smartest, most consistent snaps, usually one of the quickest guys
RG- great run blocker, able to move the defensive player and quick enough to trap block, one of the stronger and quickest guys
RT- the best run blocker, longer arms, usually one of the strongest guys, able to move an edge rusher out of the way for the RB
4-3 defensive ends- Faster, one of the tallest guys, great hands, able to get past the Tackle and get to the QB, pass rusher
3-4 end / 3-technique- bigger but not biggest, run stopper, quicker than Nose, very strong
Nose/DT- biggest, strongest, toughest, run stopper, gonna get double teamed every play
Tommy Glodo Thanks for this!
I Know Football no problem man, love the channel and I'm glad to help out all the new players out there
Tommy Glodo you don't have to be the strongest at RT
I am 3 foot 1 700 lbs can I be qb?
harley borton why not all positions
11 in 1
Yes
harley borton do you mean 3 ft 1, 700 lbs or 3 ft and 1700 lbs
Mr. Man I think he meant 3 foot 1, 1700 lbs
One of the shortest, Super fast, Agile, not weak but not super strong, sticky hands, yeah I think coach had it easy putting me as receiver
The first time I played football 🏈. The coaches were amazed at my speed, hands, agility, and acceleration. At tryouts coach told me I was a wr
Nice dude
This is a very good video! Keep up with these types of videos. Everybody better like this video to show support
And your channel is starting to grow more nowadays and I can see you reaching 200k in at least this month! Congratulations btw, next tip could. e about drills for each position or group of positions. Hope you read this and keep being awesome!
I’m definitely a WR every single attribute that you have mentioned perfectly matches my attributes
Finn Benthin is there a lot of contact at wr?
I have been looking for a video like this for 2 days u explained everything so well this helps a lot I’m 12 and a female I’m planning on playing football and this made me understand the positions perfectly! Thank u!
I'm so glad I could help!
How did it go?
I am playing running back and wide receiver for the Chicago Falcons this season
let me just say that you are really amazing , any High school football player knows who ikf is , keep up the good work 👌
Where my defensive backs at
6’1/6’2 165 lbs WR/CB/FS/OLB Freshman
I know I’m tall, but I’m also lean. I’m very fast, decently quick and strong. I lack the size for TE and line, but my height and speed makes me a good DB/WR. My speed and height is great for WR but my hands need to get better. However, my quickness and reaction time is a relative weakness for corner and safety.
What do you think?
This is gonna help me alot when i play football thanks
Hey I didn't look but do you have a video about the dangers of football and how to prevent that or perhaps what's a safe age for a kid to start playing contact football? I was playing football since the age of 6 all the way through High School because I played so young I have chip bones in my back. I don't regret it but I believe kids and parents should be aware of the ramifications playing contact Sports at such a young age. By the way I love the game love it love it love it, and I know the game also so I feel qualified to say this was a effective video. I would like to add that if a player has the right heart they can play almost any position if they work hard enough. Take care thanks for you.

Love safety
Playing safety’s great
i'll hope, no rb will see this comment xD
I just want to say with linebackers it depends on if you are a middle or outside line backer I play center and middle line backer so it kind of depends
Im tryna play running back cause I got a bunch of strength in my legs but I needa get in shape which I've been working on all summer which its gone pretty successful
Bruh I just started football and dis was rly helpful. I think I’ll prob land DE or DT... I’m not fat but I’m big and stocky. The 2nd play on defense for practice (my first practice with shoulder pads) I didn’t even mean to but I floored the runner. Anyways thanks for da help
What position did you do
mm OK man so let me help you guys 13-15
if your 13 5 to 5'5 and 100 to 120 be linebacker or safety or running back
14 same size you can be a corner or wide out or both 15 5'5 to 5'11 and 130 to 180 be QB d end linebacker or fullback
Clementines Father what about 14 6’2 220
I'm safety 17 and 5'11 190lbs I was 5'4 120lbs when I was 13
Bro thats inaccurate
very inacurate you just left out anyone above 6’0. im 6’0 and only 135 as a freshman. i play WR and S
This video was hella helpful. I am a upcoming sophomore and I joined football having no knowledge of football at all. And this video was helpful as hell
I’m joining too I don’t know nothing about football I’m 10 grade I’m 6,3 240 where you think I should play
In my opinion the Safety position should've categorized with the RB, LBs, and that category should've had "instinct" as an attribute because those three positions are usually the most instinctual positions on the field. FB should've been with TE, DE because a shorter faster TE is usually a FB. Overall good video though great content💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
I’m the tallest and heaviest compared to the rest of my team but I’m one of the quickest fastest and most agile players too so I don’t know what to play
Defensive end
We
Look at julio
Tight end on offense and defensive end on defense 💯
Tight end
He didn't give tall people a place. What if your like Richard Sherman tall and light.
Black Ball GamePlaY WR you can be a red zone guy or a deep ball guy if you are light so you don't get hit across the middle by a linebacker. Or CB if you are tall to match up with taller WR
Jeremy Blake Thank you for the advice redzone threat is a consideration but if a rival school plays with 2 safeties over the top I don't think I could play vertically.
Unless your fast and strong then you play
Tip: Don’t be afraid to hit. You might be scared at first like me but I got one hit and loved it sense
I'm not the fastest out there but I'm big and strong and I like kicking asses so I believe I can be a good linebacker
Hey IKF, great video, but just wanted to point out that you forgot kicker and punter, I know that most people don't think about that, but I just wanted to point out. Amazing video though.
Edits if you can kick/punt well you can play those positions
Hi guys I'm 13 years old I'm 1ft 2 inches tall and I weigh around 11 pounds with pads coach said I should play center.
Itziar Cantoral u should play point guard
Dank Sox 😂😂😂 u stupid
Dank Sox I've been told
Itziar Cantoral you should play fullback trust me

G'day from down under, that was a very informative about the NFL, l read a lot of short stories online, where the author is talking about Football and the players, l'm trying to picture in my head what the player looks like or the body type the players have to give me approximate idea about what the author is trying to convey in the story, cheers

My first year my coach put me at Tight End and defensive end, I was the fastest player by a whole half a second, 2nd tallest, light, and very good hands and route running. I think I would be a better fit a receiver that year and the coach later notice there mistake of not letting me play as a more receiver Tight End then an blocking.
I played at center, but in my 2nd year my coach put me at fullback because i had speed and i could block now im a running back and defensive end, its super easyto make plays at those positions
