History

Historical Context

Penalty flags first appeared in 1943, and the NFL now enforces a 15-yard personal-foul penalty for illegal hits, a rule that often yields automatic first downs. Troy high-school coach Jordan Canzeri points to that history as he seeks to reduce penalties before the varsity team meets unbeaten Columbia, hoping discipline will improve the outcome.
