Its got nothing to do with running anywhere. He isn't a kicker until he makes contact with the ball.

ART. 8 . . . A kicker is any player who legally punts, drop kicks or place kicks.
A player becomes a kicker when his knee, lower leg or foot makes contact with
the ball. He continues to be the kicker until he has had reasonable opportunity to
regain his balance or until after a free kick, he has advanced 5 yards beyond his
free-kick line or the kick has touched the ground or any other player.
