How are special teams chosen? And from what position players are chosen? How many/what type of special teams players are used?

Special Team :

Kicker (1)
Punter (1)
Gunner (2)
Kick Returner (2)

You have to chose them on your Depth Chart

Maybe I better rephrase.....

Team A needs to use their punt formation while Team B plans to return it. Who is on the field for Team A and Team B? Is there a long snapper? Do the gunner/s get matched off against comparable players on the recieving team? Are they reserves/backups (as usually happens in NFL games)?

Team A is about to start the game by kicking off to Team B. Who is on the field?

Team A is about to take a field goal or PAT attempt against Team B (assume those have the same roster set for this game). Who is on the field?

The punting team: punter, gunner, gunner
The returning team: kick (punt)- returner, kick (punt)- returner

The kicking team: kicker, gunner, gunner
The returning team: kick returner, kick returner

3 on 2 even...... 2 gunners and (kicker/punter) vs 2 kick returners.

Does 1 of the kick returners get to block? If so, which of the two? (Apart from "the one without the ball" - the first in the chart or the second)

After the kick/punt it is a 1 vs 1 situation of the G/L vs the KR/r and the G/R vs the KR/L. Not more...Basically it is (speed * tackling) vs (speed * carrying) and carrying plus some helping skills

Automatically, without any chance for the manager to do anything
