Trump ‘wouldn’t ban’ Eagles tush push

President Donald Trump recently attended the Philadelphia Eagles’ Super Bowl LIX victory over the Kansas City Chiefs and witnessed firsthand the controversial play that has been a key factor in the team’s success. The play in question, known as the “tush push,” was executed by Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts, who scored the first touchdown of the game with it.

In a recent interview with The Spectator, Trump expressed his support for the tush push play, stating that he would not ban it despite calls from other teams to do so. The Eagles have been using the play consistently since Hurts took over as the full-time quarterback, with a success rate of around 90% over the past three years.

While Trump is in favor of keeping the tush push play, he did express his disapproval of the new kickoff rule that was implemented ahead of the recent season. Trump described the rule as “the opposite of football” and “more dangerous,” emphasizing the lack of defense in the play.

Despite the controversy surrounding the tush push, Trump remains a fan of the Eagles and has even expressed his intention to invite the team to the White House to commemorate their Super Bowl win. It remains to be seen whether the tush push play will continue to be a point of contention in the NFL, but for now, it seems that Trump is firmly in support of keeping it as part of the Eagles’ playbook.
