NFL Considers Banning the ‘Tush Push’ Play Amid Safety Concerns

The NFL is currently deliberating over the potential ban of the 'Tush Push' play, a move that has sparked significant debate within the league. The play, famously utilized by the Philadelphia Eagles, involves a quarterback sneak with additional pushing from behind, which has proven highly effective but has raised safety concerns among some NFL officials and players.

During the recent NFL competition committee meeting, discussions focused on the play's impact on player safety, with some members advocating for its ban. An NFL general manager, speaking anonymously, suggested that the rule change might be presented under the guise of player safety, although the effectiveness of the play for teams like the Eagles is a significant factor in the debate.

The Eagles, who have mastered the 'Tush Push', are reportedly hearing bad news as the league leans towards a ban. The final decision is expected to be made at the upcoming NFL owners' meeting, where a vote will determine the play's future in the league.
