Any kick blocked at that distance is a result of low trajectory. On Walsh.

But one guy blocked the center, he was left of center and hit him. NFL rule:

Another new wrinkle for kicking plays is that the snapper will be considered defenseless and can't be contacted until he becomes an active blocker. Contacting the snapper before they begin engaging as a blocker will result in a 15 yard unnecessary roughness penalty. A defensive player trying to split the center/guard gap is not a penalty, but can be if they make unnecessary contact with the snapper.

That return certainly helps. They'll likely pound the ball a little now.
