The touch pass is important to master in Madden 24, so here’s exactly how you can throw the pass in the latest football sim.

Madden 24 features a variety of throws quarterbacks can use during matches, from high and low passes to a lob and a bullet pass, and it’s crucial to know about of all them if you want to dominate on the football field in the game.

The touch pass is a great option if you need to drop the ball over a defender’s head in Madden 24 but the controls you’ll need to execute it are a hybrid between a bullet and lob pass so it can be tricky to do at first.

If you’re looking to master the touch pass, here’s exactly how to perform one in Madden 24.

In order to perform a touch pass in Madden 24, one wants to press the button icon that appears above a receiver’s head at “medium strength,” per EA Sports.

In order to execute a touch pass, one wants to fully press the button that appears above a receiver. However, don’t tap it, or it will be a lob pass. Hold on to it for too long and a bullet pass will be thrown instead.

Just hold it down long enough so that the game registers the input.

Touch passes can be used to drop the ball over the head of a defender underneath, or in front on Deeper Coverage. Just make sure that the line holds up, because time will be required to get the pass off.
