Which type of block does chip block relate to?
Chip block is a rapid scheme targeted to stall the edge rusher jump off the snap.
It is executed by running backs or tight end before releasing into the route. This helps to redirect their path against quarterback. Its unexpected nature may knock the rusher off balance. The offensive lineman gets a comfortable position for finish.

However, this block delays the timing route and eliminates the rusher as the receiving option for the quarterback. The rush lane disruption may slow down the player and give the lineman extra space and boost its speed.
