What if the punter in football misses a kick?

Updated: 11/3/2022

If a punter misses a kick it is a live ball. If the kicking team recovers, they turn the ball over on downs. (Assuming they are unable to recover the ball and covet.) If the defending team recovers it plays out the same way as a traditional fumble would.

Would NFL teams be interested in someone who could kick a football 70 yards?

I'm sure they would, but not unless the ball can be kicked accurately. For a place kicker, making a kick from 70 yards out is unheard of (I believe the NFL record is 63 yards). For a punter, if you can drill the ball 70 yards down the field, great, but you would also need to be able to accurately kick it a lesser distance depending on your teams position on the field.
