The NFL league meetings are underway, and several hot button topics have taken center stage as representatives from all 32 teams convene in Palm Beach, Florida. While the "tush push" has been easily the most divisive topic to this point, the league issued a big announcement on their uniform policy that caught some attention.
After years of strict uniform rules, the NFL has begun to relax some of their policies to allow teams to be a bit more creative with what they were on a weekly basis. Last offseason, the league allowed teams to feature a third alternative helmet to be used alongside their home and away helmets.
This change gave teams even more combinations to utilize when picking out their uniforms, especially when considering the alternative or throwback uniforms they have at their disposal. Previously, teams were allowed to wear these uniforms up to three times a season.
One of the potential rule changes on the floor during the league meetings would see teams be allowed to wear these uniforms up to four times per season. According to reports, it appears as if the rule change has passed, allowing teams more freedom when selecting their uniforms.
"The NFL is updating its uniform policy to allow teams to wear throwback or alternate uniforms up to four times per season," Jordan Schultz of Fox Sports shared in a post on X.

All eyes remain on the "tush push," the popular play utilized by the Philadelphia Eagles that helped lead them to a Super Bowl victory. The Green Bay Packers proposed the change, citing concerns to player safety as being their main reason for wanting the play to be outlawed.
While reports indicate there is more support for the rule change than ever before, several head coaches and general managers have said they don't want to outlaw the play. As a result, whether or not the ban passes could come down to only a few votes.
