NFL decides 2026 fate of Tush Push ahead of owners' meetings

Is the NFL Tush Push dead or alive in 2026?

The infamous Philadelphia Eagles Tush Push play will be back in the NFL for 2026. The upcoming NFL owners' meetings will not feature any discussions on the controversial football play, meaning it will not come to a vote as to whether or not to keep it legal during games. That means NFL defenses will have to keep trying to slow down Philly's short-yard play, even if the Eagles didn't do as good of a job with it last season as they have in years past.

Perhaps that's why the NFL isn't discussing it? The Tush Push was recently banned in the UFL , but it lives on in the NFL for another season. There will be no discussion about the Tush Push at next weekโ€™s NFL ownersโ€™ meetings; the play will be back in 2026.
