Kick Return and Punt Return
For a punt returner, starting about 10 to 15 yards behind the line of scrimmage is typically recommended. This distance allows the returner to gauge the trajectory and distance of the punt while providing enough time to make a decision on whether to catch it or let it bounce. Adjustments can be made based on the punter's kicking style and the returner’s speed and agility. Ultimately, the goal is to maximize the chance for a successful return while minimizing the risk of a turnover.
