The NFL changed its kickoff rules this offseason to make that element of the game more dynamic and useful. The new rules are already creating more kick returns and impactful special teams plays.
In the first half of Saturday’s preseason game against the Ravens, Falcons kicker Younghoe Koo likely prevented a touchdown on a Baltimore kick return. While Koo made a great play with the tackle, he’s had a rough day otherwise.
The Falcons kicker has gone 1-for-3 on field goal attempts in the first half against the Ravens. Check out Koo’s touchdown-saving tackle, as shared by the NFL’s Twitter account below:
