The Green Bay Packers proposed a rule change that would effectively ban the fabled tush push in the NFL, and CEO Mark Murphy expressed optimism that the rule would pass.
The tush push ban was the talk of the NFL's annual meeting, but owners tabled the discussion about whether to prohibit it until May. The Packers’ proposal would "prohibit an offensive player from pushing a teammate who was lined up directly behind the snapper and receives the snap, immediately at the snap." Essentially, the tush push would be banned because of this.
