    The NFL will allow teams to use video scoreboards to encourage crowd noise in stadiums during entire plays, the Associated Press reports.

    Although the scoreboards can only use audio prompts until 20 seconds remain on the play clock -- down from 30 seconds -- video prompts now can be used any time.

    That's the latest change the league is allowing in an attempt to enhance the fan experience in stadiums. Last week, teams were notified they must place cameras in their locker rooms to provide video only, with the footage being displayed on the video boards and also on team apps.

    Home teams also will be required to show replays on the video boards after all scoring plays, turnovers, challenged plays, first downs and receptions where the receiver ends up out of bounds, multiple replays of any play automatically reviewed must be shown "with the very best camera angles available."
