All that changed in your scenario was the down. You still have a legal kick. You still have possession after that legal kick. The rule does not make a distinction to what down it is. I will look in the casebook to be sure. But you still start the clock on the snap.

Incorrect Rut. The rule says to start on the snap when a new series is awarded after a legal kick. Otherwise we start on the ready. Here we do not have a new series. Start on the ready.

Reference the preceding posts: We
do have a new series. Remember this little "rule of thumb": Whenever a scrimmage kick is muffed by R, the next down to be 1st for whoever recovers.
