I.M. Fletch Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 I have heard the term H-Back and am unsure of what it is. Is it a half back or what? I have read that is what Bryan Johnson will most likely be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Die Hard Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 http://slam.canoe.ca/Slam040310/nfl_was-ap.html The pass-catching tight end is used as an H-back in Gibbs' offense, and Gibbs has said he envisions fullback Bryan Johnson playing that role. http://coachingstaff.com/fb.php/wa_oneback.html And when Gibbs wanted that blocking specialist in he employed another tight end (H-back) who was a bigger blocker than a fullback and was lined up in a position to be more involved with the passing game. http://washingtontimes.com/sports/20040309-124032-4834r.htm Selecting Winslow would give coach Joe Gibbs' offense another potential playmaker. Winslow (6-5, 230) would be considered more of an H-back in Gibbs' set, with newly signed Walter Rasby still projected to start at the true tight end position and get the bulk of blocking duties.

"And when Gibbs wanted that blocking specialist in he employed another tight end (H-back) who was a bigger blocker than a fullback and was lined up in a position to be more involved with the passing game. " Hope that helps, It also places me at the century mark 4 posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
