Can NFL teams exploit new insights on QB arms?
SHARE

When it comes to perfecting the art of throwing, NFL quarterbacks spare no effort or expense. Take Josh Allen of the Buffalo Bills, for example. Allen, a star quarterback, has undergone a dramatic transformation in his throwing mechanics since his college days at the University of Wyoming. Looking back on old footage of himself on YouTube, Allen hardly recognizes the player he used to be.

Allen is just one of many quarterbacks who dedicate their offseason to refining the details of their throwing motion. Biomechanics experts like Chris Hess, the founder of Biometrek, play a crucial role in this process. These specialists focus on the kinetic sequence, ensuring that energy is transferred efficiently from the base of the body up through the arm during a throw.

An efficient thrower increases accuracy and reduces stress on the arm over time. This is where biomechanics experts like Hess come in, using motion-capture technology to analyze and optimize the quarterback’s biomechanics. Allen, for example, has seen a significant improvement in completion percentage since working with Hess.

Young quarterbacks like Allen are increasingly turning to independent professionals to fine-tune their mechanics. By gathering data on how efficiently they throw, these players can make targeted improvements to their motion, technique, and overall performance.

Building the perfect NFL QB: Meet the mysterious private coaches on the cutting edge

Beyond just mechanics, biomechanics experts like Hess work with physical therapists and private quarterbacks coaches to develop injury prevention and recovery plans. The goal is to maximize a quarterback’s arm strength and longevity, giving them a competitive edge in a high-stakes game.


Biomechanical analysis involves capturing a quarterback’s movement with high-resolution cameras, tracking every throw to identify areas for improvement. The data collected during these sessions is then used to make precise adjustments to the quarterback’s mechanics over time.

By leveraging motion-capture technology and advanced data analysis, NFL teams can optimize their quarterbacks’ performance, reduce injury risk, and improve overall efficiency. The path to success as an NFL quarterback is paved with data-driven insights and cutting-edge training techniques.
