Do teams not use the same 11 players on field goal blocks for every play?
I can understand how you get 12 players on defense because someone was confused about what package you’re running, but if you’re the 12th guy on special teams shouldn’t you stop and think “Hey, I’m not usually out here for these plays, maybe I’m an extra?”
Maybe someone was injured for the previous FG and you’re in. Then this guy returns and you don’t know. Lots of things could have happened. Getting 11 men on the field for teams is frigging hard, I’m telling you. With that being said, this is the NFL, and they have all the resources available and get paid big bucks. Shouldn’t happen.
Had this happen to me 2 times while I still played, came in on Punt Returns for some other guy and was the odd one out since that dude returned. My coach noticed both times and got me off quick enough however lol
