An NFL team has submitted a rule proposal to ban the "tush push" quarterback sneak, Troy Vincent, the NFL's executive vice president of football operations, told reporters at the scouting combine Monday.
Vincent did not identify the team that made the proposal when he made his comments, during a break in meetings between the NFL officials and the competition committee, to the Washington Post and NFL Network.
NFL owners could vote on the proposal next month at the spring owners' meeting in Palm Beach, Florida, unless the team decides to withdraw its proposal. If the proposal goes to a vote, 24 of the NFL's 32 owners would have to vote in favor for it to pass.
