Will New York gain more control over NFL officiating?
the competition committee discussed on Tuesday contingencies to “centralize some officiating functions in New York and expand the use of technology in officiating” in 2026 if the NFL and the NFL Referees Association cannot agree on a new CBA this offseason.
Per, the NFL and NFL Referees Association have been in talks for a year and a half, but little progress has been made. Even if the two sides do not come to an agreement on a new labor deal this offseason, there still will be referees on the field next season. However, if the new rule changes were to pass and a new CBA does not come into place, the NFL would use instant replay and replay-assist systems more often as a means of helping the officials on the field.Along with these changes, NFL executive vice president of football operations Troy Vincent also noted this week that the NFL could consider allowing instant replay to put flags on the field for “non-football acts leading to ejections,”surrounding the tush-push, there appear to be some conversations about shaking up officiating, especially if a new CBA is not completed by May.Eva Geitheim is a contributor to the Breaking and Trending News team at Sports Illustrated.
