On Wednesday, the NFL owners made their decision on the ‘tush push’ play popularized by the defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles.
After a vote was made on April 1, where half the league agreed to ban it in a proposal made by the Green Bay Packers, the owners agreed to make a final decision later on. In order to effectively ban the play, they needed approval from 24 of the NFL’s 32 teams for a 75 percent majority.
However, the proposal only got approved by 22 teams, causing it to fail by a narrow margin. ESPN’s Adam Schefter revealed the ten teams that agreed to keep the play legal, including the Eagles.
