They put a rule in to address Aussie punters. Punters have protection within the “tackle box” as long as they are in the process of a punt. Once an Aussie style punter runs out of the box, he loses his “punter protection “ ... if there is a bad snap and the ball rolls out of the lines of the tackle box and the punter reestablishes himself as a punter immediately, he is protected. Biggest take aways is you can tackle an Aussie style punter outside the box even when he is in he act of kicking. You can not “late hit, target, etc still”

I'm assuming it similar to tackling the QB when he's in the act of passing but you rarely see those Aussie punters hit.
