A couple of months ago, the league meetings felt more like a courtroom than a hotel ballroom. Why? Well, the league meeting buzzed with debates over the “Tush Push,” a play the Eagles had mastered. The Packers, having faced its effectiveness firsthand, proposed a ban, arguing it wasn’t just unstoppable — it was unsafe. But here comes the kicker—no one had hard injury data to back that up. So, the vote? Delayed.
The decision was tabled, and May became the new deadline, and things got even more interesting right from there. Fast forward to now, as the calendar shifted to May, the Packers submitted a revised proposal—no more pushing, pulling, or lifting the guy with the ball. Translation? Bye-bye, Tush Push. But the Eagles are not sweating it, because you know, they’re great at Tush Push.
At first, the Super Bowl-winning head coach, Nick Sirianni, called it “unfair” to ban the notorious, infamous play just because they’re good at it. And now? Well, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported on Wednesday that the former Eagles’ Center, Jason Kelce, is in Minneapolis to take the Eagles ‘ side on why the NFL should not ban but keep the Tush Push.
“Former Philadelphia Pro Bowl center Jason Kelce is in Minneapolis on behalf of the Eagles this morning to lobby NFL owners as to why they should keep, and not ban, the Tush Push play,” Schefter reported on his official Instagram handle on Wednesday. Right after that went down, Donna Kelce hopped onto her IG handle and came in support of her son. “As always…be your authentic self,” Mama Kelce commented.
