Checkdown In American football , a checkdown pass is when the quarterback attempts to complete a short , accurate pass to a running back or tight end as a last option when the wide receiver s are covered . The term means that the quarterback has " checked down " his list of receivers . Because the quarterback does not look for the checkdown pass until after he has scanned for open wide receivers down the field for about 3 – 4 seconds , the defensive line has had time to enter the backfield and so a checkdown pass is often thrown in the face of pressure from the defensive line . Alternatively , if the defensive team has sent a blitz , with linebacker s and / or defensive back s also looking to sack the quarterback , the checkdown may also turn out to be the quarterback ' s second or even first look . For this reason , the ability to complete checkdown passes , while not as dramatic as longer completions , is often seen as a key sign of an effective and efficient quarterback . These plays often result in significant yardage gain , because most of the defensive players are either in the backfield in pursuit of the quarterback , or deeper in the secondary covering receivers . A screen pass is , in many ways , a scripted checkdown .

Teams were assigned broad geographical regions around their home city , and had " rights " to the players within those regions . This encouraged players to sign with " home town " teams , as well as providing fans with players with whom they had some familiarity . The AFL also tapped sources which the NFL had disdained : small colleges and all - black colleges .

The first and one of the most prominent of these was LSU All - American Billy Cannon , who went on to become an AFL All - Star both as a running back with the Houston Oilers and as a tight end with the Oakland Raiders .
