The R player ran right between two K players, who were running down the field, to get to the kicker who was just standing there. If R was really trying to prevent K from getting to the ball carrier wouldn't it make more sense to block someone running towards the ball rather than someone just standing there?
I understand that people might disagree on whether this is flagrant or not, but it is obvious that this is more that just a standard block.
