Faking injuries has become one of the biggest talking points in college football in recent years, and coaches around the NCAA are now discussing rule changes to prevent fake injuries.

A handful of coaches met on Monday at the American Football Coaches Association convention and formed a plan to prevent fake injuries, per Yahoo Sports' Ross Dellenger. The plan, according to Dellenger, would make players who went down with an injury sit out for the remainder of the drive unless a team used a timeout to bring the player back into the game.
