This week at the NFL League meeting in Chicago, the competition committee loosened its regulations on touchdown celebrations. The new policy allows players to use the ground in the celebration, involving other players, or using the football as a prop.
“I think the game is supposed to be a game that’s a very competitive game and it’s a tough game but it’s fun,” head coach Bill O’Brien said Wednesday. “These guys have fun playing. I think, in the end, that’s what the league is trying to ‘allow these guys to do’ is to continue to have fun. If it steps over the bounds of certain things as we all know in normal society, then it’s got to get flagged.
