The NFL's Competition Committee is exploring ways to address offensive players' assistance to ball carriers, but a ban on the tush push is not on the table this offseason. Despite the lack of a proposal, the committee has discussed other forms of aiding runners, such as offensive players pulling or carrying teammates, as seen with Christian McCaffrey and Josh Allen. The question remains: Is this level of assistance truly desirable? While there's a rule prohibiting pulling runners, it's rarely enforced. As conversations progress, officials may place greater emphasis on this issue in 2026, sparking debate and discussion among fans and players alike.
