If the receiving team touches a kick in the air to knock it down before the 20/landing zone then the receiving team gets the ball at the 40 yard line. I think it’s just going to be too risky for teams to try flat and low hard kicks. It’s one of those things that if we don’t see it, it’s because teams have tried it in practice and found it unreliable. Maybe we will see it when a kicking team is looking for a higher potential reward late in a game, hoping for fumbles or misplays or something. Butker’s method of weird spin and placement would appear much more repeatable and reliable.
