The NFL has implemented new rules governing kickoffs this season. Kicker will be by themselves at the 35-yard line, unable to cross midfield until the ball is in play. The coverage team will line up at the 40-yard line, with specific player organization regulations. The receiving team will have a different setup, with most players at the 35-yard line. Receiving team can have one or two returners, with some strategic flexibility discussed by Miami Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel.
