During an attempted onside kick from its 40-yard line, the ball bounces into the air. As the ball is airborne, near R's 49 yard line, K2 jumps and controls the ball at R's 48 yard line. Prior to coming to the ground, K2 is pushed out of bounds where the recovery is completed. In the covering official's opinion, K2 would have landed inbounds.
What's the ruling?
This may be a stupid question, but, has the ball touched the ground? If it hasn't, I'm flagging for kick-catch interference.
Ya, he said the ball bounces into the air, so the kicker did one of those driving down into the ground onside kicks which then bounce high.
Oh, I see. Thanks MJT.
