Not a change that I am aware of
That is SOP in the FED Umpires Manual. On the side of the field of the team that is going ON defense. Why, I don't know. It may have originally been installed to stay clear of the conference with their coach that most teams have when they come off the field. Eliminating that conference, however, was a POE in 2000 so (supposedly) that should not be happening anymore. (But I'll bet that still happens somewhere every game. Right?)
