Don't have my book with me, but joint possession of a fumble is awarded to the team last in possession of the ball prior to the fumble. Therefore, ball would be awarded to Team K. Since the ball becoame dead in K's endzone, R would be awarded a safety and K will free kick from K's 20.

REPLY: Tex is correct...possession to K results in a safety. What about this: K punts from his two. Kick is blocked and rolls into K's end zone where it is simultaneously recovered by K1 and R1. Any different?

It is a touchdown - see casebook play 6.2.7. The ruling reads, in part, "The ball is awarded to R when any scrimmage kick ...... becomes dead inbounds anywhere while opponents are in joint possession." Rule references 4-2-2e and 8-2-2b).
If each player is also in possession of a joint, I would use rule 9-8-1j. Since you probably don't have a field test kit with you, I would rule is as being tobacco. That would be 15 yards for unsportsmanlike. I would also confiscate the material in order to prevent future violations - preventive officiating. What you do with it after that it up to you! |
