One of the most vocal advocates for banning the play has been Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott, who has cited player safety as the reason he believes the tush push should be removed from the sport.

Bills coach Sean McDermott explained his stance on Monday of supporting a ban of the “tush push.” McDermott, speaking from the annual NFL owners’ meetings in Florida, said that his support of the ban comes from wishing to protect the health and safety of the players.

Bills head coach Sean McDermott shared concerns about player safety when asked about a tush push ban at the Scouting Combine in February and he sounded like he is prepared to back the Packers' proposal to prohibit the move at the league meetings on Monday.
