I think most Referees that I know (including me) would just make this a double foul and play this over. Yes R gets the ball, but they are not in great field position where it is really much of a consideration IMO. If they were on the other 35, then I could see a different choice or possibility.

Not me. When it comes to replaying a punt down, I'm definitely giving the coach the option of taking the ball, regardless of field location. I am going straight to the coach to give the options, though.
