The Tush Push is here to stay

All 32 NFL teams voted on the ban proposal Wednesday morning, and while the NFL needed 24 votes to make a rule change, they received only 22 votes. 

ESPN's Adam Schefter revealed the 10 teams that voted to keep the Tush Push alive. 

For those who are unfamiliar with the "tush push," also known as the "Brotherly Shove," is a short-yardage tactic where teammates push the quarterback forward to gain crucial yards. Popularized by the Eagles, it played a significant role in their 2024 Super Bowl victory. However, critics, including the Packers, raised concerns about player safety and the play's impact on the game's integrity. 

With the proposal's failure, the Tush Push remains a legal and strategic option for all 32 NFL teams in the upcoming season.
