McKay said the NFL is currently focused on expediting the replay assist process as much as possible, but noted there could be an effort to have more transparency about who's involved in the future.
Notable updates from NFL competition committee co-chairman Rich McKay:
- Teams can attempt onside kicks at any time
- Replay assist can be used to DQ players
- In a scenario where there are replacement officials, replay can be used to "correct clear and obvious mistakes"

Harris said the #Commanders are investing about $25M into the stadium and facility this year, with most of that going into the stadium.
Harris said he had no issue with #Commanders QB Jayden Daniels participating in Tom Brady's flag football event earlier this month.
Harris said "no one was happy" with last season, but reaffirmed his confidence in #Commanders GM Adam Peters and HC Dan Quinn. He believes the new coordinators have a lot of upside and was pleased with free agency, stating that the team got younger, faster and more aggressive.
#Commanders owner Josh Harris said the new stadium is "on track."
Quinn said the #Commanders will likely line up Amik Robertson and Mike Sainristil inside and outside once OTAs get underway. Each player has started games at both nickelback and outside corner during their careers.
Quinn said the #Commanders haven't made a decision about who will wear the green dot on defense yet. He mentioned he's had safeties handle that responsibility in the past.
#Commanders HC Dan Quinn said DE Dorance Armstrong, who suffered a season-ending ACL injury last year, has been making good progress. Armstrong has often been checking in often with Quinn and sending him rehab videos. Seems like there's strong optimism about his return to form.
Happy 314 Day
