The NFL's rulemaking competition's committee is set to finalize and announce a new definition for the league's controversial catch rule, according to the Washington Post. The new rule will get rid of provisions pertaining to the slight movement of the football once it hits the receiver's hands and the going-to-the-ground requirement.
