NFL kickoff rules changes: New NFL kickoff rules aim to reduce injuries and increase returns by starting kicks at the 35-yard line, allowing touchbacks at the 20 or 30-yard line, and making the ball live only when it goes past the receiving team's players.
The NFL has implemented new kickoff rules aimed at making kickoffs more meaningful and reducing injuries. The rules include the kickoff starting at the 35-yard line, with returning team members starting at the opposing 40-yard line. Kickoffs that go into the end zone must be returned or downed, with the receiving team getting the ball at their own 20-yard line if caught in the air, or their own 30-yard line if it touches the ground. Teams must declare an outside kick, and the ball is live only when it goes past the receiving team's players.

Some commentators believe it will lead to more electric moments and returns, while others lament the loss of the old-school ceremonial kickoff.
