Title: Legal Kick down
Post by: hear to learn on February 26, 2014, 06:58:41 PM

For a legal kick down to occur, does the ball just have to be kicked, does it matter if it doesn't cross the line scrimmage?  For example, if a punt gets block and then Team A advanced it for a first down, that would be a legal kick down?

Yes, that is a legal kick.  Crossing the line has nothing to do with the definition of a legal kick.
