Tush push ban vote tabled by NFL owners for more discussion​

NFL owners plan to continue discussions about the Philadelphia Eagles' short-yardage tush push play after tabling a proposal Tuesday to ban it, league officials said.

The Green Bay Packers authored the proposal, which earned the support of 16 NFL teams, two sources told ESPN's Kalyn Kahler. NFL bylaws require a minimum of 24 votes to approve a change. The topic is likely to be revisited when owners gather for their spring meeting May 20-21 in Eagan, Minnesota.

Proposal to ban tush push in NFL fails by two votes, sources say​

Even the most powerful figures in the NFL were unable to stop the tush push.

A proposed ban of the tush push play that the Philadelphia Eagles have popularized did not receive enough votes at the spring meeting Wednesday in Eagan, Minnesota.

Before the vote, retired Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce and team owner Jeffrey Lurie spoke to the owners to lobby for the merits of keeping the play.

Sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter that the final vote was 22-10 on the proposal, which was submitted by the Green Bay Packers. The proposal needed 24 votes to pass.

The 10 teams to vote against the proposal, sources told Schefter, were: The Eagles, Baltimore Ravens, Cleveland Browns, Detroit Lions, Jacksonville Jaguars, Miami Dolphins, New England Patriots, New Orleans Saints, New York Jets and Tennessee Titans.

Interestingly, the Indianapolis Colts (Shane Steichen) and Arizona Cardinals (Jonathan Gannon), who are both coached by former Eagles coordinators, both voted in favor of the ban. Steichen had previously expressed his support for the tush push play last month at the annual league meeting.

The Eagles celebrated the result, writing "Push On" overlayed on an image of their team lined up for the tush push against the Packers in a post to X on Wednesday. The Eagles and Packers will face each other in a "Monday Night Football" game in Week 10 this season.

RIP Mr. Irsay. Only 65 but looked 85.

Complicated man that battled addiction. He was a real one for the city - did so much outreach for fans - and seemed to try his best to do good despite his own troubles.
