NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell Seeks to Ban Eagles' 'Tush Push' Play

The controversial play will be reviewed by the NFL competition committee this offseason, with a potential ban requiring approval from at least 24 team owners.

  • NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell reportedly wants to ban the Philadelphia Eagles' signature 'Tush Push' play, a quarterback sneak play used in short-yardage situations.
  • The play, also known as the 'Brotherly Shove', involves quarterback Jalen Hurts being pushed forward by players in his backfield to gain extra yardage.
  • Despite other teams attempting to replicate the play, none have had the same level of success as the Eagles.
  • The NFL competition committee, which includes representatives from the Eagles' three division rivals but none from the Eagles, will review the play this offseason.
  • Any decision to ban the play would require a vote by at least 24 of the league's team owners.
