TreVeyon Henderson's Touchdown Could Be Invalidated by Proposed 'Tush Push' Rule Change

AutoDraft Pro AI

New England Patriots running back TreVeyon Henderson scored his first touchdown against the Jets, a play that was facilitated by a multi-teammate shove. However, if a proposed rule change regarding the 'tush push' had passed, this touchdown would have been invalidated. The rule, which initially focused on the specific formation but later broadened to prohibit any pushing of the ball carrier, failed to gain sufficient traction. The article notes that officials often do not call fouls for such tactics, even when they remain prohibited.
