In this guide, we shall go over how to perform the one-handed catch in Madden NFL 26, one of the hardest catches in the game.
The NFL showcases some of the greatest athletes on the planet, and Madden NFL 26 puts you in their very shoes, allowing you to witness the greatness for yourself. The game allows you to recreate iconic moments and showcases of athleticism all for yourself through its incredible physics-based gameplay, but even then, something as exciting as a one-handed catch remains rare.
One-handed catches are a rare display of absurd grip strength, hand-eye coordination, and athleticism, and Madden NFL 26 gives it justice by making it hard to perform in-game as well. The prompt to do so may be as simple as a press of a button, but there’s a lot more to a one-handed catch than meets the eye. We shall discuss this in detail below.

How To Perform a One-Hand Catch in Madden NFL 26
The actual prompt to perform a one-handed catch is simple and can be done with the press of a button. Press and hold the L1 button, and your wideback will perform a one-handed catch. If you’re on Xbox, the button is LB.
Now, while that may seem simple, there’s a lot more to the mechanic. Before you press and hold the button, you first need to look at the trajectory of the ball. If the ball is headed straight for your chest, that’s a no-no. This is because if you press and hold L1 while the ball is coming at your chest, the wideback will use both hands to catch the ball. In order to catch it with one hand, you have to make sure that the ball is lined up adjacent to the wideback’s torso.
The next thing you need to keep in mind is the player itself. Not all players are created equal, and some are better at catching than others. If your wideback has a good Spectacular Catch stat, they’re good to go. If they have the stat low, however, there’s a chance they fumble the catch. Keep this in mind when attempting it.
