👉 Placekicks are a type of football kick that is awarded to the kicker during a play in which the ball is kicked into the opponent's goal. Placekicks are similar to field goals, but they are not attempted from behind the line of scrimmage. The kick must be made at least 25 yards (40 meters) from the centerline and 6 feet (1.8 m) above the ground.
