It's a play that's seen maybe 3-4 times across the entire league per week. And it's not violent like you make it out to be. 10 of those guys are just trying to go after the ball. If such a play can't be tolerated, then what's being done about rest of the far more physical and frequent plays in an NFL game?You're missing the point.
We're living in a CTE-conscious world. The NFL doesn't want plays where 10 guys on the field get 15-yard running head starts before they crash into 10 stationary, fairly defenseless guys trying to catch a football.
Kickoffs are an endangered species. The NFL is actively trying to get rid of them. It's just a matter of time.
