draw play
Handoff after feint
A draw play is a football play designed to deceive the defense by initially appearing to be a pass.
The quarterback drops back as if to throw while the offensive line allows defenders to rush through, then hands off to a running back who advances through the gaps created by the over-pursuing defense: They ran a draw play on third and long.
