Browse/switch players mid pass play

How do you browse through your players (switch players) in the middle of a pass play? Just like you can browse through your defenders players pre play by holding B on defense, and your offensive players pre play by holding A on offense; But , what about in the middle of a pass play? I want to be able to hold B or something and start flicking the L stick until I’m usering who I want. Is this possible currently? 

  • If you're in the middle of a play and switch your player it's going to go to the player closest to the ball. 

    If you switch while a pass is in mid air that can usually cause a problem because it's going to be hard to know which exact player you'll get switched to if there's multiple defenders within the same range. It's generally pretty safe to switch to the defender while the pass is in the air if you know they are the only one in the area where the ball is heading to.

    Wrong.  It does not work.  I switch players and im not even on the screen.  The only thing this works for consistently is punts and kickoffs.  Hardly ever works for defensive pass plays.

    This game has gone so far down hill its not enjoyable.  Bring back ESPN, they new how to play a fun game before the madden franchise monopolized it.
