Michael Clay talks about NFL's new kickoff rules

Transcript

00:00Yeah, the great thing about it, 31 other teams are in the same boat in terms of that and

00:06we have spent a lot of, you know, a good amount of time and not taking away from other aspects

00:11because obviously it's a new rule, you have to get used to it, you have to do it more often than not,

00:16but you still want to take away from the other aspects of special teams, but we have put some

00:20time into it, you know, a lot of long conversations between myself, Tyler, Joe P, and even just around

00:27the league, you know, I think that's the cool thing about the special teams community in the NFL,

00:31everyone respects each other at a high level and bounce ideas off each other, hey, what do you see

00:38here, how do you see it from peers and other aspects of the league, so it's going to be

00:44exciting and interesting all at the same time because you really don't know what to expect

00:49because nobody's really even seen it, even from an XFL aspect, there's still a lot of nuances

00:55from the XFL rules, what they implemented to what we're trying to get done here in the NFL, so

01:00it's exciting time, it's a lot of retraining for a lot of these veteran guys that are so

01:06used to NFL rules to now these new rules kind of just relearning it from the ground up.
