This drill will work on your quarterback's ball control. The quarterback stands with his legs shoulder width apart in a good athletic stance with the ball in his throwing hand.
At the start of the hand drill the quarterback will bring the ball behind his back and transfer the ball in to his other hand behind his back. He will continue this motion for several more revolutions increasing speed with every repetition. At the whistle, the quarterback will then bring the ball through his legs, switching both hands and legs with every revolution. He will again increase the speed of the repetition until the whistle is blown.

The next part of the drill is to have the player circle his head with the ball, again increasing his speed with every revolution.
At the final whistle, the quarterback will bring the ball in front of him. Then get the proper handle on the ball, bring it to his throwing position, take a five step drop back, plant and throw. Remember to keep the ball and elbow high in proper position.
The proper mechanics are always performed in all drills to build the quarterback's muscle memory. By doing this, he will be able to perform on the field without thinking about his mechanics. Having ball control and mechanics performed until it becomes second nature will prevent unnecessary turnovers and an additional time to make a play. Every drill must be started with the quarterback watching the ball until he feels comfortable with the transfer. Once he is comfortable, the quarterback will look down the field.
Remember, always throw it to the guys in the right color jersey.
