The controversial “Tush Push” could stay in the NFL<\/h2>\n\nDespite the controversy and criticism generated by the “tush push” or “hip thrust”, it seems that this play could remain in the NFL. Sources close to the league suggest that there are no plans to discuss or vote on its possible ban this offseason.\n\nThe play, which has generated debate since last season, could remain in the game for a while longer, according to a source who believes the issue needs to be “postponed” for a year before being reconsidered.\n\nAn important factor is the lack of a key proponent for a possible ban. Mark Murphy, the former president and CEO of the Green Bay Packers, who proposed the ban last year, retired in July.\n\nFor the “tush push” to be banned, a new proponent, more support, and votes would be needed. However, a source indicates that it is unclear if this will happen, at least at this point in the season.\n\nThe play has been scrutinized following its use by the Philadelphia Eagles, especially in their recent victory against the Kansas City Chiefs, where they used it on several occasions.\n\nThe NFL has instructed officials to enforce the rule more strictly and has indicated that the Eagles should have been penalized for a false start.\n\nThe Eagles, current Super Bowl champions, have defended the use of the play. Left tackle Jordan Mailata criticized those who use it as an “excuse” to justify victory. Center Cam Jurgens stated that the team focuses on its own game and that they will adapt if the league decides to make changes to the rules.\n\n\n
\"Los<\/figure>\n\n\nThe Eagles have had a high success rate with the “tush push” in fourth-and-one situations since 2022, with a 96.6% success rate.\n\nThe controversy over the “tush push” continues, with some arguing that it is a dangerous play, although there is not enough injury data to justify a ban for safety reasons.\n\nFormer Eagles center Jason Kelce, who defended the play and presented it to NFL owners, believes the renewed criticism will eventually lead to its ban.\n\n\n

I think the play is over. There are a lot of people in the league, at multiple levels, who want the play to go away, which is fine.<\/p>Jason Kelce<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nDespite rumors of a possible ban, there is no significant opposition to the “tush push” that could result in its elimination.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
