If the play resulted from a scrimmage kick, once the ball is laying (dead) for more than 2 seconds, i kill it. In the case of R touching the ball and then K jumping on it. I would have R with a muff, and K having recovered the Muff (dont allow any advance of the ball by K). First and 10 for K.
If the play is resulting from a free kick (you said "Kickoff" in your subject), then the ball is live. I have never seen a free kick being blown dead on the field of play because of neither R nor K is trying to recover it. In the case that this does happen, i would blow it dead after my two second rule (of'course, when no player is trying to recover the ball). In the case R touches the ball (Muffed), the ball remains live and K can recover.
