NFL considering among the things to vote and possible change for next season is removing TDs if the player ends up getting flagged for taunting.
Quote:
The NFL may consider voiding touchdowns as part of taunting violations next season. The league could vote for taunting penalties to negate touchdowns scored to by the violating party, according to NFL head of officiating Dean Blandino (via Pro Football Talk). The subject of negating touchdowns came up while Blandino was speaking on NFL Network on Wednesday afternoon.
The aftermath of the Golden Tate taunting penalty during the Seahawks win over the Rams may cause the league's Competition Committee to discuss changes to the rule, per Blandino. Tate and the Seahawks were penalized 15 yards on the kickoff following the touchdown, but the score still counted.
