The first question you need to answer is: when does a kick end? It ends when the ball is caught or muffed. Any receiver who makes a FC is protected/limited from making contact with a member of the K team. After the ball is muffed, not caught, the protection ends, for all players, because the "Kick" has ended. It's still a loose ball play, but the "Kick" has ended.
Oz, Sorry my good buddy but thats wrong. The muff does not end the kick. The kick ends when a player gains possession or when then ball becomes dead by rule.
