An NFL team wants to ban the “Tush Push” play that fueled the success of the Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles, according to the NFL Network and Washington Post.
Philadelphia Eagles offensive lineman Lane Johnson is amused by the Green Bay Packers. Or at least the NFC North team's efforts to ban the tush push play if his reaction to a Monday report from Dianna Russini of The Athletic is any indication.
Eagles sources say the team is planning on visiting the White House this off-season and looks forward to receiving its invitation.
The Philadelphia Eagles had one of the most impressive Super Bowl runs in recent history, culminating with 95 points between the conference championship game and the Super Bowl-- the most points combined in those two rounds of the playoffs in NFL history.

The Philadelphia Eagles had one of the most impressive defensive performances in the Super Bowl LIX victory over the Kansas City Chiefs, holding a 34-point lead with five minutes left in the 40-22 victory.
NFL offseason is here. Trade rumors are swirling around big names like Matthew Stafford, who reportedly has permission from the Los Angeles Rams to discuss a contract with other teams. Meanwhile, all 32 clubs are able to use the franchise tag until March 4.
And so ends the drama over whether the Super Bowl LIX champions will visit the White House. For now. Contrary to a report from nearly three weeks ago that the Eagles had decided not to visit the White House if they win the Super Bowl,
