Will NFL Vote To Eliminate Overtime?

By the fourth quarter of a preseason game, most of the players on the field aren’t going to make the regular-season roster, and no one much cares who wins or loses.

So when the score is tied at the end of the fourth quarter, why do teams bother to play overtime in the preseason?

The NFL is considering a proposal to eliminate overtime in the preseason.

But that doesn’t mean it will pass, as NFL owners have voted to keep overtime in the preseason on multiple occasions when it has come up at past league meetings.
