AAF’s Version of An Onside Kick Needs To Make Its Way To The NFL NOW (VIDEO)

Just like the National Football League took some innovative ideas from the first installment of the XFL, they need to do the same with the Alliance of American Football.

On Sunday, the Atlanta Legends found themselves down 16 points in the 4th quarter, with less than two minutes to play.

After scoring a touchdown, the team elected to go for an onside kick, which isn’t an actual kick, but rather teams have the option of taking a 4th-and-12th at their own 28-yard-line.

The Legends completed it for the first time in league history and it was glorious.

There's no such thing as an onside kick in the AAF. Instead you have the option to take the ball on your own 28 and face 4th and 12. It happened today:pic.twitter.com/snrzBSd5wO — NFL Update (@MySportsUpdate) February 25, 2019

Make this 4th-and-20 and I’m all for having this in the NFL.
