free kick
Any time you call a fair catch, you have the option of attempting a field goal from that spot with no defense on the field (I'm not sure if it's an untimed down or not).

But the same rules apply: if you miss it, the other team gets it right there.

It's rare and would only happen with like 1 second left in a half.
