(a2) R gets some leniency when K is running the ball. If the R player did not have a reasonable opportunity to pull up, and the contact was not otherwise illegal, play on. R's ball 1st and 10 at the R30. (b) This is an illegal kick, so no RTK is possible. If the contact was not otherwise illegal, play on. If R declines the illegal kick penalty, R's ball 1st and 10 at the R30. If R accepts the illegal kick penalty, it'll be K's ball, 4th and 20 at the K10 (penalty is half the distance). A PF for unnecessary roughness would have PSK enforcement in (a2), in which case it would be 1/10 for R at their 15, or in (b) it would offset the illegal kick penalty, replay the down. Alternatively R could decline the IK, keep the ball, and have PSK enforcement of the PF.

The only thing that I will say about this play is that if it is in doubt that the kicker is actually going to kick the ball, then it is not automatically roughing if they are hit immediately after punting the ball. It is very possible under the rules to have absolutely nothing or another type of foul. Protection should only be given when it is clear a kick is going to be made. If the kicker is waiting until the last minute, then that might be too bad for them.
Peace

The OP didn't say who downed it but if you assume it was downed by K, then I believe you are correct.
