"NFL Considers Adopting XFL Kickoff Model for 2024 Season"

The NFL competition committee is reportedly considering a rule change for kickoffs, potentially modeling it after the XFL's kickoff rules from 2023. The proposed change aims to modernize kickoffs and increase the play's frequency, as the current fair catch rule resulted in a lower return rate. Specific details of the potential rule alteration were not disclosed, but the committee's discussions suggest a willingness to reintroduce plays that have diminished in the game.
