NFL Replay Assist Expanded for 2024 Season on Roughing, Intentional Grounding, More

The NFL replay assist will be expanded in 2024 to include intentional grounding, roughing the passer and late hit out-of-bounds penalties.

According to Jonathan Jones of CBS Sports, in-game officials will only be able to receive help from the replay crew in New York if flags have already been thrown for those specific infractions.

The replay assistant can review the calls and determine if a quarterback was in the pocket or under duress on an intentional grounding call, they can decide if there is "clear and obvious" evidence that a defender did not make contact with the head or neck area of a quarterback on a roughing the passer call and they can reverse a late hit out of bounds call if it is determined that the runner was hit while still clearly inbounds.
