MJT is correct in his statement that K was in team possession when the IW occurred. Football Fundamental
I. POSSESSION 3. A loose ball is in possession of the team whose player was last in possession. Because the IW occurred while the ball was loose during a legal kick, the down will be replayed. However, in the play there was a foul by R which did not meet the requirements of PSK. If K declines the penalty they replay the down from the previous spot. If they accept the penalty, the IW is ignored and R would have the ball 4th and 2. They would then have the option of kicking or attempting to make the first down.
