Without looking at the fundamentals, it is clear that this is a safety due to the kick being the force that places the ball in K's end zone. If the rules all line up, do not sweat the fundamentals in this case.

I agree with everyone that it is a safety without consideration of the fundamental. That is pretty obvious.
However, this is the first time I've ever encountered a contradiction to a fundamental statement. Can anybody cite others?
