No I did not. The description said "blocked punt" which only the return team would be the one blocking the punt. If they touched the ball in the expanded NZ, the touch is ignored, like it did not happen. So R would get the ball as they would get the ball on any punt or end of the play during a punt play unless they touched the ball beyond the NZ first. If K touched the ball first, the end result would be the spot of first touching. No, I did not get anything mixed up. The play description never was really clear where the ball was touched by R. It does matter where they touch the ball if you give the ball to K at the end of the play.
