It’s a hot read in the case of a blitz. I.e., your running back runs a rail route if the OLB blitzes and the qb immediately throws there. There are instances where qbs will change the PLAY at the line, or call a modifier, but changing individual routes at the line? That’s as rare as a Marino fake spike.

This is one of many aspects of madden that doesn’t represent what happens on the field. People can change all 5 routes on the fly but there’s still no offensive and defensive sub packages.
