2024 Approved Playing Rules for the National Football League | No More Drop Tackle
NFL clubs adopted the following rules change proposals so far this morning at the NFL Annual Meeting in Orlando, Florida.
2024 Approved Playing Rule Summary
By Detroit; amends Rule 15, Section 1, Article 1, to protect a club’s ability to challenge a third ruling following one successful challenge.
By Competition Committee; amends Rule 14, Section 5, Article 2, to allow for an enforcement of a major foul by the offense prior to a change of possession in a situation where there are fouls by both teams.
By Competition Committee; amends Rule 12, Section 2, to eliminate a potentially dangerous tackling technique
I am not sure how the NFL will eliminate the drop tackle, but 15 yard penalties will be handed out for every drop tackle.
