NFL Kickoff Rule Changes Spark Roster Adjustments, Braxton Berrios Embraces Returns

Berrios, who led the league in return average with the Jets in 2021, is excited about the increased opportunities presented by the rule change, which creates a landing zone between the goal line and 20-yard line with players lined up between the 30- and 40-yard-lines.
