NFL Overtime Rules Are Officially Changing
CINCINNATI — NFL overtime rules are officially changing.
Playing Rule Proposal 1 was amended at the NFL owners meetings according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
That means both teams are now guaranteed a possession in overtime. The rule change will only take place in the postseason, which means the regular season will have the same sudden death format that it's had in recent years.
The Bengals beat the Chiefs in overtime during the AFC Championship Game. They forced a turnover on defense before Evan McPherson kicked the game winning field goal.
Kansas City beat Buffalo in the divisional round and the Bills never touched the ball in overtime.
