It will be 1st and 10 for R at the R-1 foot line.
The governing rule is:
8-5-3 . . . It is a touchback when:
a. Any free kick or scrimmage kick:
1. Which is not a scoring attempt or which is a grounded three-point field-goal attempt, breaks the plane of R's goal line unless R chooses a spot of first touching by K.
The K team player's feet being in the endzone has no bearing on this, only the position of the ball.
