    Summary per Josh Houtz of The Phinsider

    "Tuesday, league owners voted on a variety of different topics...

    ... a rule voted on by the majority of NFL owners, removed the 75-man roster cut. This means teams can carry 90 players throughout the entire preaseason, making final roster cuts hours before the regular season begins.

    ...Previously, teams were only allowed to bring one player back from IR in a given season. That is no longer the case, as teams will now be enabled to return two players from injured reserve.

    ...Owners also voted on a reduced overtime rule, switching from 15 to 10-minute quarters.

    ...Lastly, referees plan on being more lenient with on-field celebrations than previous years."
