In the 2024 NFL season, the league saw a kickoff return rate of ~33% up from ~22% in 2023. This increase was due to the complicated changes in kickoff rules involving the all-important “landing zone” as well as some tweaks to where the ball was spotted.
It looks like this season the NFL is not content with what they saw in 2024. The competition committee will be looking at one more slight tweak to put the spot...

Edge rusher is a key position in today’s NFL - especially in the pass-heavy AFC West. So signing Nik Bonitto to a long-term deal sooner rather than later should be a no-brainer.
Pro Football & Sports Network predicted every NFL team’s biggest need post-free agency, and it may be a slight surprise that Denver’s “position of need” came on ... defense.
After all, Denver added ex-49er defensive standouts Dre Greenlaw and Talanoa Hufanga, while also re-signing run-stuffing tackle D.J. Jones, as the bell to open free agency rang.
