How NFL pass interference rule change could have altered 49ers history
The NFL issued a rule change Tuesday, and New Orleans Saints fans likely are pleased about it.
(Actually, they're probably still quite pissed.)
NFL owners approved a change for at least the 2019 season that will make pass interference -- both offensive and defensive -- a reviewable play. Additionally, coaches will be able to challenge non-calls for pass interference.
The vote to include OPI and DPI, call and no-calls, in the NFL replay system passed by a vote of 31-1.
