Yeah, I mean to me this is a hugely underreported story. They've outlawed the standard kick return strategy. Everyone uses the wedge. In addition to more mis-direction I guess you will see an emphasis on more disciplined spacing to create a "virtual wedge" where the blockers are legally spaced a couple of yards apart.
