In the first one, if he intended to use his foot the play the ball, it's kicking. It's not like the ball just hit his foot by accident, which would be legal. Of course, like so many other plays, one would have to see it to judge it.
I'm a bit confused by the second play - looks to me like intentional grounding in the endzone and a safety. There's nothing in the rule about "how" the ball has to be thrown. If the release of the ball is intentional and it goes forward, it's a pass. Like one I had with a punt blocked back to the punter. He caught the ball, panicked, and just flipped the ball away and it went forward (incomplete pass and grounding).
The "recovery" by B doesn't matter since the ball became dead when it hit the ground.
