A lob pass in Madden 24 is a great tool to use if you want to hit a tight end or wide receiver who are breaking away from coverage in the game. So, here’s exactly how you can throw a lob pass in the latest Madden title.

Madden 24 features a lot of passes to learn and use on the football field. From the high pass to the touch pass, they’re all useful to know as they can make a difference in the game. The lob pass is a great weapon that can help you get the ball to streaking wide receivers during games so it’s essential to learn.

With that in mind, here’s how to do a lob pass in Madden 24.

How to throw a lob pass

To throw a lob pass in Madden 24, players will want to just tap a receiver icon – for example, it could be the X button on Xbox or Square on PlayStation, depending on the receiver.

For those who don’t know what the receiver icon is, we mean the corresponding button that shows up above a receiver.

How to throw higher lob pass in Madden 24

To throw a higher lob pass, hold L1 or LB, depending on the console as you tap the receiver.

As soon as the finger hits the button, take it off the button as quickly as possible. This will ensure that one doesn’t throw a touch pass. Touch passes require a longer hold period on the receiver icon button.

The good news is that once one gets familiar with the controls, it shouldn’t be too hard to get used to how to throw a lob pass.
