Key Points:
- The NFL competition committee, led by co-chairman Rich McKay, announced there are no current plans to propose a ban on the "tush push" play this offseason, as no team has submitted such a proposal.
- The effectiveness and frequency of the tush push significantly declined in 2025, particularly by the Philadelphia Eagles, reducing concerns about its safety and diminishing calls for its ban.
- Last offseason, a proposal to ban the play lacked sufficient support, and with the Eagles using it less than 90% of the time, the issue is no longer a priority for the league.
- Sean McDermott, who previously raised safety concerns about the play, was criticized for hypocrisy as his team was the second-highest user
