The tush push will live for another season according to Tom Pelissero and Judy Battista of NFL Network.

NFL owners on Wednesday voted against banning the tush push play popularized in recent years by the Philadelphia Eagles.

The proposal, submitted by the Green Bay Packers, was revised from one submitted for the league's Annual League Meeting earlier this spring and would have eliminated pushing or pulling a runner "in any direction at any time," while lifting the player to his feet also would have been banned.

Green Bay's proposal fell two votes shy of the necessary 24-vote threshold for ratification with 10 teams voting against the ban, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported.

The Eagles, who have been vocal in defense of the play the past few seasons, celebrated Wednesday's news on social media and with a video on their official YouTube channel featuring "26 Minutes of the Tush Push."
