NFL tush push ban: Mike Tomlin, Andy Reid and Sean McDermott cite injury concerns as teams prepare to vote

The NFL annual meetings are underway, and there's already one topic dominating the conversation. That would be the tush push. The play — which was popularized by the Philadelphia Eagles — could be banned by the league after a vote Tuesday.

With that vote just around the corner, a number of coaches gave their thoughts on a possible ban. While most coaches hinted at the way they were leaning, Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott gave the strongest quote against the now controversial play, saying he wants to be "proactive" on banning the move to prevent player injuries.
