Man vs cpu route running with friend teammate

[InMahomesWeTrust]

I'm trying to figure out if I'm playing Madden 20 franchise mode with a friend and they want to line up on a receiver, how can we get the computer to run the route and then have the ability to have user control the catch and run after. So far when my friend is lined up as receiver  and I snap the ball, the receiver just stands there or my friend is forced to attempt to run the same designed route which is extremely difficult. Please help, thanks everyone.
