You can’t overload no matter it’s a normal or onside kickoff. Teams were still able to do surprise onside kickoffs before this most recent kickoff rule change, for example, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qbUmdHmyb9E

it'd be 30 yard line in this case. Basically, the ball placement is following: If the kickoff hits end zone and downed or goes out of the back of end zone, the ball is placed in 30 yard line. If the kickoff hits landing zone (goal line to 20yard line), bounces to end zone, and downed for touchback, the ball is placed in 20 yard line. If the kickoff hits landing zone and stays in the landing zone, receiving team must return it. If the kickoff is short of landing zone, the ball is spotted at 40 yard line.

My understanding is that the old rule doesn't only allow onside kickoff in 4th quarter nor limiting to trailing teams. The last change before this new kickoff rule was to avoid kickoff team to overload one side as I recall.

no surprise onside kickoff anymore, but there is still onside kickoff for trailing teams starting 4th quarter. https://operations.nfl.com/the-rules/rules-changes/new-dynamic-kickoff-rule-explainer/#:~:text=Onside kick%3A,at the A20 yard line Onside kick: 4th quarter begins, the team trailing has the opportunity to declare an onside kick to the officials Current onside kickoff rules would apply. If onside kick goes beyond the setup zone untouched, kicking team penalized for UNS; return team would start the drive at the A20 yard line

but when he is not jammed at LOS:

breaking down film as if he were coaching the team? That would be an interesting watch and learning opportunity for fans.

mm……

remember this is what analytics people call “struggling” in camp. 😎

Yeah, if Von can get back to his old self, it’s huge!!!!!
