Story summary
- The National Football League (NFL) addresses a 2024 kickoff-alignment glitch that affects penalties during kickoffs.
- Currently, a 15-yard penalty changes the kickoff spot but leaves the landing zone and restraining lines unchanged.
- The league would place the receiving team at the 20-yard line for kickoffs from the 50 that land in or out of the end zone.
- If adopted, outcomes would be limited to the 20-, 35-, and 40-yard lines.
