I personally agree with Isaiah’s stance here.
If you are interested in watching the entire interview from today, you can only find it here:

Not only that but this new rule is going to change a lot of things.
No need for a specialist kicker, just a strong leg that can launch it into the endzone.
If a kicker is kicking is in bounds, between the goal & 25, their stats are definitely going to go DOWN!
No need for a gunner on the return, just a sure handed catcher, that’s it.
The only thing I can see that might get interesting, is if they start getting guys on ST offense that have extreme acceleration in short distance. Where they deliberately kick it short of the goal and hang back, baiting the returner to take it and run, then close on him like a rocket. Definitely a chess game doing that.
