Watch: Female kicker levels returner with ferocious hit

Kick returns are dangerous. That’s why the NFL keeps adjusting the kickoff rules. But they’re extra dangerous around Kelly MacNamara. 

MacNamara, a kicker at North Penn High School in the Philadelphia surburbs, rocked some poor kick returner into next week with a vicious hit this weekend. 

That’s a good, clean, fundamentally sound tackle. Penn State’s Joey Julius would be proud.
