How to hurdle in Madden 24: Input & tips

The hurdle is one of the most underrated movements in Madden 24. While it can be challenging to find the exact moment to execute it, a successful hurdle will put your runner in front of the end zone. Here are the inputs and some tips to perform a hurdle in Madden 24.

The strongest defense will give you a hard time in Madden 24, as they often apply pressure on your receivers as well as your Quarterback and Running Back. However, you should know that there’s a move in Madden 24 that can disrupt a strong defensive line.

Of course, we’re talking about the hurdle. This movement, mainly seen executed by Halfbacks, is very simple to perform in Madden 24. Here’s everything you need to know to hurdle in Madden 24, including the inputs for PlayStation & Xbox controllers, and some tips to keep in mind.

Madden 24: How to hurdle

To hurdle in Madden 24, simply press the triangle button on the PlayStation or the Y button on the Xbox. Your ball carrier will perform a high jump forward, avoiding an incoming tackle from your opponent.

It’s essential to consider the player you’re using when performing a hurdle. While executing a perfect hurdle has an easy command, if the ball carrier lacks decent jump and agility ratings, they might still be tackled during the animation.

Another crucial detail is that if you attempt a hurdle with your Quarterback, you should ensure that you’ve crossed the line of scrimmage. If you press Triangle/Y while still behind the line, your QB will pass the ball to your receiver.

Finally, we recommend using the hurdle movement in 1v1 situations. When your player jumps, they will be exposed to a potential fumble if they receive more than one tackle while in the air. That’s why we suggest you hurdle in 1v1 or 1v2 situations.
