A tiny fix (I think)

[drewst18]

I accidently jumped the snap too early on an extra point and I think they finally fixed the extra point penalties.

iirc in previous years if you commited a penalty on the XP your options were:

Accept: Retry Extrapoint (be given half the distance)
Decline: XP Good. Kickoff

They now give you the option if you make it to Accept: XP Good, Kickoff from the 40.

A small fix but definitely welcomed addition.

Huh...I didn't know the NFL had that rule? You get the kick good AND the penalty on the kickoff....man how did I not know that?

Any distance penalty for fouls committed by the defense that prevent the try from being attempted can be enforced on the succeeding try or succeeding kickoff. Any foul committed on a successful try will result in a distance penalty being assessed on the ensuing kickoff.
