Invalid Fair Catch Signal???
My play: K punted the ball to R. The ball was high, but a tad shorter than R11 expected it to be. The ball hit the ground and then R11 gave a legal fair catch signal, but didn't recover the ball. The ball was subsequently downed by K.
My question: is this nothing or is this an Invalid Fair Catch Signal?
Rule 2-9-4c states: An invalid fair-catch signal is any signal by a receiver before the kick is caught or recovered after the kick has touched the ground.
Well, in my situation, the kick was never recovered after the kick touched the ground.
