The Eagles’ unique quarterback sneak, known as the “tush push” or “Brotherly Shove,” has been a game-changer for Jalen Hurts. While it’s been working wonders for the Eagles, other teams find it hard to replicate.
Lane Johnson, an expert on the Eagles’ strategies, shed some light on the “tush push” on ‘The Pat McAfee Show’: “The Quarterback sneak has been around forever, and we’re wedging down in there. We’re moving our feet, and we’re better at it than most.” This statement reflects the authority that comes with being an NFL pro.

Kelce, another seasoned veteran, proudly stated, “We’re really successful at it.” He acknowledges that teams are doing their best to imitate the Eagles’ tactics, which only validates their effectiveness.
The NFL has taken notice of the Eagles’ unique play, raising concerns about its safety. According to Sports Illustrated reports, the league has issued a warning. However, Kelce sees this as routine. “They’re always sending us notices,” Kelce said, as the NFL regularly informs teams about rule changes to avoid surprises.
The Eagles’ head coach, Nick Sirianni, remains tight-lipped about the NFL’s letter, opting to keep it under wraps.
Phillyvoice reporter challenges Adam Schefter’s claims
NFL insider Adam Schefter suggests the league will delve into injury data following a risky play attempted by the New York Giants, resulting in injuries to two of their players. While some may have reservations about this, it highlights the NFL’s commitment to player safety and rule enforcement.

However, not everyone is in agreement. Phillyvoice reporter Jimmy Kempski disputes the severity of the injuries, arguing that the NFL typically doesn’t investigate minor incidents. “To correct Schefter’s tweet, it is most certainly not ‘customary’ for the NFL to thoroughly investigate injury data on a play the first time a guy gets a minor injury while running it… Call it what it is.”
It’s a topic of contention within the league, with some teams advocating for rule changes. Kempski added, “One team is great at it, and the rest of the NFL doesn’t want to defend it, so they’re trying to legislate it out of the game.”
