A safety in the NFL is when a team gets tackled in their own endzone. The result is 2 points and the ball is punted to the opposing team.
Nicholas Neglia. He caught his ball and fell back on his chair and still had the ball.
I believe this IS allowed in the NFL so long as the ball leaves the kicker's foot before crossing the line of scrimmage. I can't recall though ever seeing this type of kick DONE in an NFL game. ---- A field goal is attempted when the ball is placed on the ground for the kicker to kick or when the ball is dropped to the ground and kicked once it touches the ground and starts its bounce back up. In other words, the ball must have touched the ground or is touching the ground when the kick is attempted for the attempt to be considered a 'field goal attempt'. A punt occurs when a kicker kicks the ball before it has touched the ground. No points can be scored by a punt. So the answer to the question, as I understand it, is no. No. If a punted ball travels through the uprights, no points are scored. The ball has to make contact with the ground before it's kicked to score points, either by placekick or dropkick.
Some idiot who didn't realize that should've been the players ball instead he should've never done that yeah he would've had it he knows what he's doing!
1 rule is if the ball is not fully over the foul line it is not a out or a foul no matter how big or small the ball is if the ball touched anything else it does not cout if another player is on the feild sitting and it touched them it still counts
When a punted ball is 'fair caught' by a receiver, the ball is spotted at the mark that the receiver caught the ball.

touchback
The ball is kicked in American football: at kick off, during fieldgoal attempts, and when punted.
The average acceleration of a football when it is punted can vary, but typically, it ranges from 8 to 10 m/s^2. This acceleration is produced by the force applied by the kicker's foot to the ball, propelling it forward.
Hangtime refers to the time when the ball is punted, to the time the ball hits the ground or is caught by the opposing team. More simply, hangtime is the total time the ball is in the air.
No. When the ball ceases reasonable movement, it will be whistled dead by the referee.

By definition, a ball "in the air" is a loose ball, and therefore no one has possession. However, depending upon the circumstances, it's possible that only one team has the right to gain possession (for example, a punted ball).

Tom Brady punted the ball cause that late in the game being ahead that much didn't figure they had to try for a touchdown.
In order to be a touchback, a punted (or kicked-off) ball must reach the goal line. Any part of the ball can be over any part of the line, just as in touchdowns or two-point tries. The ball does not need to travel all the way to the back of the end zone.
