NFL Owners have approved on a modified kickoff rule, per @DMRussini
A touchback will now bring the ball to the 35 yard line. This is expected to encourage teams to not kick it out of the end zone.

This is good for viewers, more kick returns is more entertaining. And actually a very impactful rule and makes ST more pertinent (unless I’m missing something). Touchbacks every other kick is tactical but boring.

Push the kick-off spot back 15 yards and then this might work.

it needs to go back to the way it was like as soon as that ball is kicked players are flying down the field

Literally go back to the old kickoff rules where a touchback goes to the 20 causing the return team to know they can get further than the 20. Knowing that they can get more causes more kick returns. It’s not rocket science NFL.

<@GarretWilson5> it’s forcing teams to actually do kick returns
