More from Dolphins News
The NFL is looking to stop using kick-offs. Only two seasons ago they moved the kick-offs from the 30 to the 35 yard line and in doing so saw the NFL’s average returns drop to only 4 of every 10 kicks. It’s still not enough for the NFL.
The competition committee implemented the one year change at the last owners meeting and it will likely stick for the future. The NFL is trying to cut back on what they say is the most dangerous play in football. It may not have the desired intentions and the Dolphins are one team that may be preparing for the non-expected outcome.
