The Packers have submitted a revised proposal to ban the ‘tush push’ with owners potentially set to vote on the issue this week.

Green Bay previously proposed outlawing the play – which has been popularized and used to great effect by the Eagles in recent seasons – in March, though it was tabled at the league meetings then to be voted on during the spring.

And as the Packers look to gain support for their proposal, they have changed some of the language from their initial submission, namely with regards to where on the field the rule would take place.

While the initial proposal referred to a a ban on players pushing their teammate from behind ‘immediately at the snap,’ the new proposal does not specifically refer to the snap.

‘Prohibits an offensive player from pushing, pulling, lifting or assisting the runner except by individually blocking opponents for him,’ the proposal reads in the ‘Effect’ section.

The new proposal also replaced one section – which referred specifically to the snap – with a more simplified line: ‘assist the runner except by individually blocking opponents for him.’

The proposal calls for a loss of 10 yards for violation of the potential new rule.

The Packers will need the approval of 24 of 32 teams when the vote takes place.
