The Eagles use of the Tush Push, their version of the QB sneak, has become a weapon for the team’s offense. It is such a hard play to stop that teams have tried to adopt it themselves—though most of them are unsuccessful—and there have been rumors that the league will look into banning the play in the offseason.
However, it does not seem like the NFL is going to alter the rules to move away from this specific play. NFL executive Troy Vincent said the league is not interested in changing the rules to eliminate the Tush Push.
“That was false,” Vincent said about the rumors, via Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer. “This play has evolved.”
