(The Hill) -- President Donald Trump resumed his push Monday against the NFL's "ridiculous" new kickoff rule that's aimed at reducing injuries while promoting more kick returns.

"It’s at least as dangerous as the 'normal' kickoff, and looks like hell," Trump wrote in a Truth Social post Monday morning after the season's second weekend. "'Sissy' football is bad for America, and bad for the NFL!"

"Who comes up with these ridiculous ideas?" he added.

The NFL didn't immediately respond to The Hill's request for comment.

The kickoff rule was overhauled at the start of the 2024 season, and Trump has voiced his displeasure with it repeatedly in the past. The league tweaked the rule this fall to further encourage returns and discourage touchbacks, but owners left the overall concept in place.
