Carolina Panthers Use Uber-Rare Fair Catch Kick NFL Rule...

Carolina Panthers fair-caught a punt with one second in the half, then tried a fair catch kick for three points! Unfortunately for Panther fans - kicker Joey Slye pushed the 60 yarder wide right.

"Fair Catch Kick" Rule:

After a fair catch, the receiving team has the option to put the ball in play by a snap or a fair catch kick (field goal attempt), with fair catch kick lines established ten yards apart. All general rules apply as for a field goal attempt from scrimmage. The clock starts when the ball is kicked. (No tee permitted.)"
