In football, there isn't a specific penalty called "excessive blocking." However, the game does have penalties for illegal blocking, such as "blocking in the back" or "holding," which are called when a player blocks an opponent in an illegal manner. These rules are in place to ensure player safety and maintain fair play. Depending on the situation, excessive or dangerous blocking can also lead to unsportsmanlike conduct penalties.
