    Are there any rules in any of the major league sports (Major League Baseball, NFL, NHL, NBA, or NBA) that deal with electronic communication?

    Since 1994, quarterbacks have been able to get calls via radio, but in 2008 the NFL also began allowing one defensive player on the field the ability to pick up calls from his coaches.

    The NFL also allows coaches and players on the sideline to communicate with coaches stationed in the press boxes above the field. Both teams are allowed this communication, but if one team's communications goes out, the other team's gets turned off.
