Packers reportedly call for ban on ‘bad for the game’ tush-push play

Eagles have used play in short-yardage situations
NFL say Packers want to end use of play in NFL

One NFL team is proposing an end to the tush push play the Philadelphia Eagles have used so successfully at the goalline and in short-yardage situations, including during their victory over the Kansas City Chiefs in this year’s Super Bowl.

According to NFL Network, league executive Troy Vincent said on Monday that a team submitted a proposal to ban the play, in which teammates push Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts to gain the yardage necessary for a first down or touchdown. Vincent didn’t identify the team, but the NFL Network later said it was the Green Bay Packers.
