DONALD Trump isn’t a fan of the modern NFL.
After two weeks of the 2025 NFL season, the new dynamic kickoff appears to be a success.

However, that doesn’t mean everyone is a fan of the new rule.
Among the biggest critics is President Trump, who thinks the dynamic kickoff is “ridiculous.”
“The NFL has to get rid of that ridiculous looking new Kickoff Rule,” he posted on Truth Social.
“How can they make such a big and sweeping change so easily and quickly.
“It’s at least as dangerous as the ‘normal’ kickoff, and looks like hell.
“The ball is moving, and the players are not, the exact opposite of what football is all about.
“‘Sissy’ football is bad for America, and bad for the NFL!
“Who comes up with these ridiculous ideas? It’s like wanting to ‘roll back’ the golf ball so it doesn’t go (nearly!) as far.
“Fortunately, college football will remain the same, hopefully forever!!”
While Trump isn’t a fan of the rule change, the numbers speak for themselves.
In Week 1 of this season, 75 percent of kickoffs resulted in returns.
Last year, that number was at just 33 percent.
The first kick return touchdown occurred in Week 2 this season, and hopefully there will be more to come.
Last year there were only seven kickoffs returned for touchdowns.
