The league will review 16 proposals altogether at Sunday’s meetings, including seven from the Competition Committee and nine submitted by teams.

The committee’s changes include a nfl cheap jerseys free shipping permanent change to the kickoff rules started last season as well as new rules to prevent blindside blocks.

Among the notable team-submitted rules, the Kansas City Chiefs are hoping to allow both teams to get the ball in overtime. This shouldn’t be a surprise after the Chiefs lost in overtime of the AFC Championship Game without their offense seeing the field.
