The NFL has not abandoned the tie game. According to the rules (found at the NFL's web site in their rules digest) a tie game occurs during preseason and regular season games if neither team scores after a 15 minute sudden death quarter. The maximum is one period.
With the advent of sudden death, the tie game has nearly vanished from the game but it does happen.

Has there been a game in in a tie in college football?
Yes. Prior to the institution of overtime in 1996, any game that had a tie score at the end of four quarters officially ended in a tie. Numerous games across the country in each division ended in a tie each season. For example, the winningest program in college football history, the University of Michigan, has an overall record of 901-314-36, meaning the Wolverines have won 901 games, lost 314 games, and tied 36 games. Now that overtime has been instituted, a game ordinarily cannot end in a tie. However, if a game were prematurely ended prior to the end of the fourth quarter by a mutual agreement between the programs for an extenuating circumstance (say, severe weather), and the game was in the second half, it is technically possible to conclude a game in a tie if the score was tied at the time the game was halted.
