There are several different types of passes in Madden NFL 22, and the touch pass may be the most difficult one to throw. Indeed, some players will initially find it quite difficult to perform a touch pass in Madden NFL 22, as it requires some fairly precise timing. However, fans that spend some time practicing this pass should ultimately be able to execute it consistently and incorporate it into their offenses.
How to Touch Pass in Madden NFL 22
To perform a touch pass, Madden fans must simply press the input that appears over their desired receiver’s head. If the player finds that they are constantly throwing bullet passes when they attempt this maneuver, it means that they are holding the input for too long, and they should try releasing just a half-second or so earlier. Conversely, if a fan is always throwing lob passes when going for a touch pass, they should try holding the button for just a bit longer.

Since throwing a touch pass in this new football video game is just a matter of timing, the only way to really learn it is through repetition. While some players may not be very excited to put their efforts toward this type of training, it should not take a great deal of time for fans to internalize exactly how long they need to hold the input for. And when that internalization has occurred, players will have an entirely new tool in their arsenals, which will improve their games overall.
Other Types of Passes in Madden NFL 22
To note, the aforementioned bullet, touch, and lob passes are not the only ones that quarterbacks in Madden NFL 22 can utilize. Indeed, there is also a high pass, which is executed by holding LB/L1 and pressing the input that appears above the receiver of interest, and the low pass, which is performed by holding LT/L2 and pressing that same input. These passes give fans even more options when they are playing offense, and it is worth taking a bit of time to get familiar with them.
Additionally, players can do a pump fake by double tapping a receiver’s designated input or simply throw the ball away by pressing in on their controller’s right joystick. While these actions are not technically passes, they do provide interesting opportunities to modify the way that the ball is handled after the snap. Certainly, some situations will arise where these techniques prove useful, and it is thus worthwhile for players to consider them when they are looking for a receiver in Madden NFL 22.
Madden NFL 22 is now available for PC, PS4, PS5, Stadia, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
