The National Football League outlines major rule updates including overtime as sudden death for all games and 15 minute limit for preseason and regular season. Kicking moves back 10 yards to the end line and scrimmage kickoff rules adjust. Passing removes roll blocks and cuts, with restricted downfield contact on eligible receivers. Penalties for holding, pass interference, and tripping lowered to 10 yards in certain areas. Wide receivers’ blocking restrictions near the line shift three yards inward.
