Chair (route)

A chair route diagram

The chair route or out-and-up is a route run by a receiver in American football. The route was pioneered by Don Hutson.[1] It is an out route followed by a fly route, like a wheel route with a quicker vertical release; or a stop-and-go with an out rather than a curl.[2]
