"NFL's Overhauled Kickoff Rules: What You Need to Know"
The new NFL kickoff rule has a potential flaw where penalties on the try cannot be enforced after the kickoff, leading to a loophole that allows defenses to go all out to block extra points with no real consequences. Despite some belief that teams may have the option to enforce penalties after the kickoff, the NFL has clarified that this is not the case. The league is considering potential changes to address this loophole, but finding a solution may be challenging, as it could create new complications such as affecting touchdown returns and the starting position of the offense.
