They should have just tried the onside kick instead.
They should have known whether he could comfortably kick through the end zone. Seems weird that they didn't know that.

But why not just kick out of bounds? Difference of only 5 yards.

Onside kicks without the element of surprise are almost impossible, around 6%. I'd rather have the ball with 50+ seconds or so, even if I'm going the length of the field.
