Had this discussion and was wondering what you may call or interpret?
A is in scrimmage kick formation (punting on 4th down)
It is 4th and 8 from K's 42 we will say.
R34 comes onto the field late and the ball is snapped and we have a legal scrimmage kick.
Covering official has a flag for 12 players on the field.
In situation 1 we will say R34 enters the game but never participates in the play since it went to the other side of the field.
Will this result in Illegal substitution or participation?
In situation 2 we will say R34 blocks on the return.
Will this result in Illegal substitution or participation?
The other question we posed where is the enforcement spots. Since the block in #2 takes place after the snap does it now become a post scrimmage kick foul?
We have never had it but one of the crew members threw it out and got is all thinking.
Happy to hear your comments, thoughts and rulings by the book please.
