For Fed, R HAS to be in possession of the ball at the end of the down. No ifs, ands, or buts, about it.

The ball may be possessed by K, but in actuality it belongs to R, therefore PSK will apply.

But Grant, if R downs the punt as it is rolling slowly beyond the NZ, they are in possession, but PSK will apply.
