DAVIE — When Dolphins special teams coordinator Darren Rizzi was asked about scouting kicking prospects and responded by rattling off the field-goal percentages of the NFL’s top kickers coming out of college, there was no getting around that this guy spends a crazy amount of time mulling such things.
Next week, there’s a good chance that when NFL owners gather for their spring meeting in Atlanta, there’s a good chance they’ll OK changes in kickoff rules to enhance safety without compromising excitement.
And Rizzi’s special teams could stand to benefit immensely.
