\u2014 Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) May 21, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n Are the Carolina Panthers<\/a> proponents of the NFL’s cheekiest play?<\/p>\n On Wednesday, team owners voted against a ban of the “tush push<\/a>,” the controversial quarterback sneak made famous by the defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles<\/a>. The proposal, presented by the Green Bay Packers<\/a>, fell two votes short of the 24-team threshold at the spring league meetings in Minnesota.<\/p>\n So, were the Panthers amongst the 22 teams who voted to can the play, or were they amongst the 10 teams who want to the league to butt out of the playbook?<\/p>\n Well, according to ESPN senior NFL insider Adam Schefter, they weren’t a part of the latter bunch . . .<\/p>\n Panthers head coach Dave Canales was asked about the “tush push” during the owners meetings back in April.<\/p>\n \u201cThe statistics don\u2019t say it\u2019s definitely a dangerous play,” Canales stated<\/a>, via NFL Network’s Cameron Wolfe. “Most of convo is on safety issue. But I don\u2019t want to take away competitive advantage. Eagles have mastered the play.\u201d<\/p>\n Also known as the “Brotherly Shove,” the push is a short-yardage running play that tasks an offense’s skill players with literally pushing their quarterback (by the tush) to pick up a first down or touchdown.<\/p>\n Since 2022, the Eagles and the Buffalo Bills<\/a> have tushed the push more than the NFL’s 30 other teams combined\u2014and to a success rate of 87 percent. The league average in that time was 71 percent.<\/p>\n Follow\u00a0@ThePanthersWire<\/a>\u00a0on Twitter\/X for more Panthers content.<\/p>\n
