Roughing the Kicker question


Question

Posted

Rushville- Franklin County game last Friday night. Would this be considered roughing the kicker? The ball was tipped after the kick and did not go thru. It was not called as it was tipped which I think is the right call but would like verify.

The rule provides that contact against the kicker is a foul, but there are 4 instances in which contact is excused, one of which is 

“The defense touches the kick near the kicker and contact is unavoidable.”

In this play, the contact would be excused.
