For those unfamiliar, the NFL’s new kickoff rule aims to enhance player safety and reduce high-speed collisions. It requires at least eight players on the return team to line up within 15 yards of the ball, making them less likely to collide with the kicking team. I believe Cordarelle Patterson will have a late-career surge in this aspect of the game with his running back build, wide receiver skills, and no-nonsense style.
