Sources: NFL Owners Allow Competition Committee to Alter Replay Process for Late-Game PI Calls

The NFL owners have voted to give the Competition Committee the power to alter the replay process for both offensive and defensive pass interference inside the last two and a half minutes of a game, sources told the MMQB's Albert Breer.

This move could become part of a coaches challenge system throughout the game. It will be further discussed when the league's head of officiating, Al Riveron, speaks with coaches on June 4th and 5th. The competition committee is expected to make a decision on OPI/DPI reviews after hearing coaches feedback.

Reports surfaced last week that changes could already be coming to the newly installed review rule for pass interference penalties, as NFL owners looked at a proposal allowing the Competition Committee to possibly change the rule without the owners' vote.
