NFL Commissioner Considers Ban on Controversial 'Tush Push' Strategy
Philadelphia Eagles, Known for Successful Use of the Strategy, Prepared to Adapt
- NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell is reportedly considering a ban on the 'Tush Push', a controversial play strategy used by the Philadelphia Eagles.
- The 'Tush Push', also known as the 'Brotherly Shove', involves a rugby-like scrum that pushes the quarterback from behind, often resulting in a first down or touchdown.
- The Eagles have been particularly successful with this strategy, leading the NFL with a 73.7 percent fourth-down conversion rate this season.
- Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce has expressed indifference about the potential ban, stating that the team will adapt regardless of the decision.
- Alternative strategies suggested for teams include the fullback dive, the jet sweep, and the traditional quarterback sneak.
