NFL to test boundary cameras at MetLife Stadium this season

The NFL isn't ready to let coaches ask for reviews on all plays, but it will be testing a new way to help officials make the right call.

USA Today's Tom Pelissero reports that the league will install boundary cameras at MetLife Stadium, home of the New York Giants and New York Jets, this season, to help with replay reviews. Cameras will be for the sidelines and end lines.

NFL spokesman Michael Signora wrote in an email to Pelissero that testing will begin "a bit later this season, providing us with 10-12 games worth of data on viability, impact, and feasibility.”

Despite Monday's controversial non-call of an illegal bat in the Seattle-Detroit game, the league is unlikely to expand replay to cover more penalties. New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick is an advocate of coaches being able to challenge any play, and has also proposed goal-line and boundary cameras.

At Wednesday's quarterly league meeting in New York, competition committee chairman Rich McKay was asked what prevents the league from allowing any play to be challenged, and he pointed to pace of play as one reason. Currently, any questionable call inside the final two minutes of each half can be reviewed if officials in the replay booth believe it's needed.

Green Bay Packers CEO Mark Murphy, another member of the competition committee, offered another reason to USA Today why there should be limits on what can be challenged:

"I think it's really hard to review subjective decisions," Murphy said. "That's what the officials are for."
