Once K has touched the ball before it is grounded, there is a foul for kick-catching inteference.

Mike- this isn't a foul by K if there is no R player in position to catch the ball. It's the exception to 6-5-6.
The only foul on this play is perhaps delay of game.

Mike and JMN are correct on this one AM. The exception to 6-5-6 says "K may catch , touch, muff or bat a SCRIMMAGE KICK (caps are mine)in flight beyond the NZ if no player of R is in position to catch the ball" . The only time a K player may catch a free-kick is if R first touches the ball.
