Overview
- NFL owners are set to vote on the Packers' proposal to ban the 'tush push' play during this week's league meetings in Palm Beach, Florida.
- The Packers argue the play compromises player safety and disrupts the game's pace, though NFL data shows no injuries linked to it in 2024.
- The Philadelphia Eagles, who have mastered the play with an 87% success rate, claim the proposal unfairly targets their innovation and success.
- The NFL competition committee has not formally recommended banning the play, but reports suggest growing support for the proposal among some owners.
- The rule change requires approval from 24 out of 32 team owners, with notable opposition from teams like the Cowboys and Eagles.
