The new kick-off rules and tackling...

Jolly, that was the worst AI drivel I have seen. I cut out and didn’t read it. Are they claiming Butker was released or benched? There’s no indication on any legitimate sports site to back that up…

Title are you referencing the idea that some teams are considering using positional players to kick off, since there will need to be more tackling?
-
After watching XFL tapes, the Chiefs have determined the kickers were involved in tackles on approximately a third of the kick-offs. That ramps up the possibility of kicker injury.
Since kick-offs don't have to travel as far, they are entertaining the notion of a non-kicker doing the kick.

If I remember correctly, they have a safety that was their emergency kicker last year that actually kicked a 35 yard field goal and a couple of kickoffs.
Back before the merger, place-kickers and punters were also positional players. I’ve always thought it would be fun to go back to that.
