According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the Detroit Lions proposed to eliminate an automatic first down as a penalty imposed for defensive holding or illegal contact. Said proposal did not pass a vote from the league's owners. As meetings continue on, one question remains: will the "Tush Push" be banned? We should get an answer soon enough.

There were not enough teams that wanted to change the rule for defensive holding and illegal contact. According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Lions’ proposal to eliminate an automatic first down for the penalty did not pass on a vote of the 32 teams at the annual league meeting in Palm Beach on Tuesday.

The proposal aimed to make those infractions become 5-yard penalties without the automatic first down added. Dan Campbell spoke about the thought process behind the proposal shortly before it failed to pass.
