‘Tush Push’ will remain

The NFL is making some big changes for the 2025 season, all aimed at improving player safety, making the game fairer, and giving teams more flexibility. At this year’s NFL owner’s meeting league officials approved several updates to the rules, bylaws, and policies that will shape how games are played and how teams operate.

A proposal to ban the ‘Tush Push’ was tabled until a later date on Tuesday. The proposal by the Green Bay Packers will be discussed again at the next league meeting in mid-May.

NFL Competition Committee chairman Rich McKay explained during a Tuesday interview on NFL Network that player health and safety was part of the conversation surrounding the play, but it was not the only factor ownership considered.
