From NFL.com - Digest of Rules :

Coin Toss

1. The toss of coin will take place within three minutes of kickoff in center of field. The toss will be called by the visiting captain before the coin is flipped. The winner may choose one of two privileges and the loser gets the other:

(a) Receive or kick

(b) Goal his team will defend

2. Immediately prior to the start of the second half, the captains of both teams must inform the officials of their respective choices. The loser of the original coin toss gets first choice.

I was referring to fbwhitehat's post that a team can only choose to receive or choose a goal.

They can also choose to kick. Choosing a goal does not automatically equate to kicking the ball.

I am replying to your post which stated there were three options. There are only two options:
1. Kick or receive
2. Defend a goal
