NFL owners have rejected a proposal to replace the onside kick with one play from scrimmage. The idea was to enact a one-year trial of a fourth-and-15 play from the offense\'s 35-yard line to replace the onside kick.
Onside kicks are considered one of football\'s more dangerous plays.
The competition committee recommended the play by a vote of 7-1, but the owners still rejected it.
