A system and method for blind detection of preempted resources in an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system is herein disclosed. According to one embodiment, a method for blind detection of resources in an eMBB pre-empted by a URLLC includes receiving soft information including at least one code block, attempting to decode the at least one code block, and running URLLC blind detection on the at least one code block with the decoding attempt fails.
