OOB on K
Rule 2-28-3 says a loose ball is out of bounds when it touches anything, including a player or game official, who is out of bounds. This rule seems to treat officials and players alike in this regard, and declares the ball is out of bounds. Since it cannot be OOB on the official, the player OOB would not be responsible for the ball being OOB either. I think this is a free kick infraction on K. I don't think this would be any different than if the R player was all the way out of bounds when he caught the kick.
