Spot the ball where the K-player caught it. The F/K down ended at that point, there cannot be any advance by K. 1/10 for team-K.
Theisey, it is a free kick. It must go beyond the plane of R's free kick line and touch the ground for it not to be kick catching inteference.

On a scrimmage kick, if no R player is in position to make a catch, K could touch or recover it, but it would be 1st touching, unless blocked into the ball...
