the kicker will still kick off from his own 35 but his teammates will now line up on the opponent’s 40 which is 25 yds ahead of where they lined up in past years and they cannot move downfield until the ball is either touched by the opponent or hits the ground the receiving team must line up at least nine players between the 30 and 35 yd line in what’s being called the setup Zone and they’re allowed a maximum of two players inside The Landing Zone which is between the goal line and the 20 if a kickoff hits short of the landing Zone the receiving team automatically starts at their own 40 yd line if it lands inside the landing Zone and goes through the in zone the drive starts at the 20 any kick that is down in or lands in the end zone and goes through results in a touch back to the 30 yd line if a kickoff goes out of bounds the receiving team takes possession on its 40 yd line finally onside kicks are only permitted in the fourth quarter

  1. The nfl is so soft now. It’s a contact sport. Next they’ll move to pulling flags to down a player with the ball.

  2. Why doesnt the nfl just make it flag football while they are at it and just get it over with instead of making up all these ridiculous rules year after year thay takes more and more action out of the sport.

  3. the investment guy who invented this for his woman….aught to know his woman hates his GUTS…

  4. I stopped being a professional foot ball fan when players started disrespecting our national anthem, but these new kickoff rules sound more like something an elementary school teacher made up. I say hit them at the box office and stop buying tickets until they bring the old rules back!

  5. I just found out about this rule one year later. Its terrible. I am so glad I quit watching the NFL in 2016.

  6. The NFL has gotten ridiculous, how the hell can the players keep up with all these rules that are constantly changing, leave it the way it was back in the 1960s🎉

  7. I'm reminded of a joke from M*A*S*H: "I don't understand a word you've said, but I'll defend to the death your right to confuse me." Whose brainchild was THIS?

  8. As a non-American why not just start each quarter with a play on the 50-yard line instead of a kickoff from the defending team's 35?

  9. Stupid ass rules. Just em in the 30. I liked it back in the day where u start at the 20 on a touch back. These kickers are getting so good soon 1 first down youll be in field goal range
