NFL Bans 'Tush Push' Play; Former Eagles Coordinators Involved
Tap title to read story
NFL teams voted to ban the controversial 'tush push' play, a key element in the Philadelphia Eagles' Super Bowl run. Indianapolis Colts coach Shane Steichen and Arizona Cardinals coach Jonathan Gannon, both former Eagles coordinators who benefited from the play's success, saw their teams vote to ban it. This decision, despite Eagles coach Nick Sirianni's expectation of their support, leaves them needing to explain their teams' votes. The ban may not be permanent, with the possibility of revisiting the issue next year if the Eagles' success continues and more of their coordinators are hired elsewhere.
