Cardinals' DeeJay Dallas First Player to Solve Dynamic Kickoff With a TD Return

DeeJay Dallas became the first player to return a kickoff for a TD under the new rules.

The Arizona Cardinals and DeeJay Dallas are officially part of NFL history. During the fourth quarter of the Cardinals' Week 1 matchup against the Buffalo Bills, Dallas scored a kick return touchdown—the first under the new dynamic kickoff rules.

The Bills took a 31-20 lead on a Josh Allen touchdown and Tyler Bass booted the ensueing kickoff deep into the landing zone. Dallas caught the ball at the four, took it straight up the middle until he was past most of the coverage and then headed to the sideline where he had blockers.
