Free Kick in Dolphins - Titans Game Confuses Everyone Thanks to New Kickoff Rules

Titans special teams coach Colt Anderson was beside himself.

The Tennessee Titans beat the Miami Dolphins 31-12 on Monday Night Football in Week 4. Miami briefly had the ball down 10 with 2:33 remaining, but Tyler Huntley was called for intentional grounding in the end zone which essentially ended the game. And yet that's when things got interesting.

Forced to take a free kick from the 20-yard line after the safety, the Dolphins announced they were attempting an onside kick, but used their punter to do so. Jay Bailey kicked the ball high in the air and it dropped to the ground near midfield, where it bounced once, and was caught by one of the Dolphins players.
