- Kickoff specialist (em português: Especialista de Kickoff; abreviado: KOS) é uma posição no futebol americano dos Estados Unidos e do Canadá. Kickoff specialists são membros do special teams (time de especialistas). Eles são responsáveis por chutar a bola durante o kickoff. Esses jogadores são conhecidos por ter uma perna forte, capazes de fazer touchbacks, mas não possuem a técnica ou a pericia de um kicker (Chutador) ou de um punter. Devido as restrições no rosters, muitos times da NFL não possuem um Kickoff Specialist, usando seus punters ou kickers para fazer os kickoffs. Durante a temporada de 2009, do Carolina Panthers e do Dallas Cowboys são os únicos jogadores da liga a serem reconhecidos como Kickoff Specialist. (pt)

- A kickoff specialist is a special teams position in gridiron football. They are responsible for kicking the ball in the kickoff. These players tend to have a strong leg, often capable of making touchbacks, and capable of keeping a ball in the bounds of the field of play but do not have the accuracy or technique required to be a full-time placekicker or punter. Placekickers usually double their role as kickoff specialists; pure kickoff specialists are now seldomly-used. Some kickoff specialists later become full-time placekickers, while some are marginal placekickers who are soon out of football. Due to modern roster restrictions (and a 2016 rule change discouraging the kicking of touchbacks by awarding the receiving team possession at the 25-yard line instead of the 20), most NFL teams do not elect to have a kickoff specialist, and instead use their placekickers (or, less often, punters) on kickoffs. The most recent NFL kickoff specialist was Jordan Gay, who played the position for the Buffalo Bills under special teams coach Danny Crossman from 2014 to 2016. Prior to Gay's being claimed off waivers, Buffalo's kickoff duties were handled by Billy Cundiff and John Potter, who likewise were kickoff specialists during their time in Buffalo; for 2017, the team brought in former high school kicking phenom Austin Rehkow as a contender for the position but opted not to use a kickoff specialist that year. Other players who have spent at least some time as kickoff specialist for an NFL team since 2006 include Stephen Hauschka, Rhys Lloyd, David Buehler, Todd Carter, and Brandon McManus. As of the end of the 2014 NFL season, punters Thomas Morstead, Matt Bosher, Sam Martin, Pat McAfee, and Michael Koenen handle kickoffs. There is at least one example of a backup quarterback serving as a kickoff specialist; in 1965, Bob Timberlake did so for the New York Giants. In high school football and most other professional leagues, such as the Arena Football League and, until recent roster expansions, the Canadian Football League, one kicker handles all three kicking positions. Even college football teams usually do not use kickoff specialists, despite the much larger rosters at that level; however, if an underclassman has a stronger leg than the upperclassman kicker, but is not yet ready to assume placekicker or punter duties, they will usually handle kickoff duties while being the primary backup placekicker and punter.

Le botteur est un membre important des unités spéciales, soit les formations qui sont envoyées sur le terrain pour les jeux qui ne sont pas des jeux ordinaires à partir de la ligne de mêlée. Les botteurs se spécialisent ordinairement en botteur de précision (kicker ou placekicker) et de botteur de dégagements (punter). Dans la NFL (football américain), presque toutes les équipes emploient un joueur différent aux positions de botteur de précision et de botteur de dégagement. Le botteur de précision effectue les transformations (extra point), les bottés de placement (field goal) et les bottés d'envoi (kickoff). Par contre, au football canadien on emploie souvent le même botteur pour tous les types de bottés, en partie parce que seulement 44 joueurs peuvent être en uniforme pour un match, comparé à 46 dans la NFL.
