Is the ball dead when touched at the 1yrd line and nothing matters after that or is there a fumble or a penalty or something? No one else got there to 'down it' properly.

So it sounds like we have first touching by K, which occurred in the field of play, and a subsequent illegal kick by R. Is that right?
