The celebrations will continue. You simply have to be in uniform to partake in the party, according to a report.
Pro Football Talk reported Monday the NFL will continue to limit the celebrations to 40 seconds. Consideration was given to limiting it to players on the field but that was dismissed.
“What started to happen is we had everybody and their family came on the field to celebrate,” Al Riveron, the NFL’s senior vice president of officiating, said during the league’s officiating clinic over the weekend. “. . .The rule now says if you’re not an actively dressed member of the 46-man squad, you cannot come onto the field to celebrate.
