When the new was announced, Special Teams coordinator Marquice Williams said that a former player reached out to him stating how prepared he already was for the challenge thanks to Williams' tutelage."One of the things this former player told me was 'Coach, some of Wade Davis Jersey these drills we do is just like this kickoff return rule.' So we're excited because we get to use some of the modalities and teachings we've been using through drill work...it'll create more Adam Ottavino Jersey opportunities for these guys both on and off the field."If you don't know what the new rules entail, here's a brief rundown:The kicker still kicks from the opposing 35-yard line, but he's now on that yard line by himself. The rest of the kickoff coverage team stands on the opposing 40-yard line.The return team can have up to two players in what is called the returning zone, between the return team's goal line and the 20-yard line. The rest of the return team will be aligned in what is called the set-up zone, between the team's 30- and 35-yard line.For the kicking team, the kick has to land in the return team's returning zone. If it lands Mark Reynolds Jersey in the end zone, beyond the 20-yard line or out of bounds, the return team gains Jake McGee Jersey po se sion at the 35-yard line.There's more to it but those are the three key premises to understanding the new kickoff rules. For Williams, the prospect is exciting and has opened the door for more explosion in the kicking game."There are going to be 600 more plays in the NFL, which is going to accumulate more yards, which is going to Daniel Murphy Jersey equal to more points. It's exciting, it's a bit unknown because this play hasn't really been ran before...and because it is an unknown, our players are embracing the unknown. And we're going to embrace this opportunity to help our offense and defense by scoring points, eliminating points, probably taking the ball away and it's going to create momentum." |
