NFL adopts new overtime rules for regular season, giving both teams a chance to possess the ball.

NFL owners have unanimously approved a change to regular-season overtime rules, ensuring both teams get a chance to possess the ball, mirroring the playoff system. The 10-minute overtime period allows both teams to play an offensive drive even if the first team scores a touchdown. The Philadelphia Eagles proposed the rule change, aiming to provide a fairer game dynamic. Additionally, replay assistance was expanded to allow on-field officials to be advised on objective calls based on clear video evidence.
