Double punt?! Seahawks' Michael Dickson pulls it off against Rams

SEATTLE -- Who said punters aren't athletes?

Michael Dickson made one of the smoothest plays you'll see from a specialist when he scooped up a blocked punt and repunted the ball, saving the Seattle Seahawks from being backed up near their own end zone.

Dickson's punt was blocked Jamir Jones. With the ball spinning upright on the turf, Dickson scooped it up with one hand, in stride, and punted it for a second time -- 68 yards to LA's 11.

And, although the TV announcer were confused about the rule at first, it turned out to be legal.
