NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell floated the possibility of tweaks to the dynamic kickoff rules only a few weeks into the 2024 season. It's the first year of the new rules.
The NFL introduced the dynamic kickoff prior to the start of the 2024 season, taking a page out of the XFL’s playbook. But the new kickoff formations have not exactly led to increased returns. Front Office Sports noted that only 29.1% of kickoffs have been returned this season — only about 7% more than what it was during the 2023 season.
Former President Trump sounded off on the new kickoff rules in an interview with OutKick founder Clay Travis on Saturday. 'Big time college football is as big as the NFL,' he said. 'I don't know what they're doing with the kickoff return in the NFL. And I don't want to get involved in controversy, of course, but it looks so bad. 'And I noticed that they hadn't done that in college, and they shouldn't do it,' he said.
