It’s bull shit it’s going to take away so many sacks.

Yes Fig

Found it:

The new 2024 rulebook, in two separate locations, redefines being out of the pocket.


From Rule 3, Section 25: “A player who is in possession of the ball is out of the pocket area, and the pocket area no longer exists, if any part of his body or the ball is outside of the pocket area.”

From Rule 8, Section 2, Item 1: “A passer is out of the pocket area if any part of his body or the ball is outside the pocket area.”

Yeah it's dumb.
