NFL Policy Edge: When is a fumble out of completion area a touchback? - Natasha827 - 08-30-2025

Section 7,  Short Article 3,  Thing 4-a of the 2023 NFL policy publication says,  "If a ball is fumbled in the area of play,  and moves forward right into the opponent's goal line and over the end line or sideline,  a touchback is awarded to the defensive group;" This is very important for everyone to recognize https://www.vikingssportshop.com/collections/trent-sherfield-sr-jersey,  since the Philadelphia Eagles were saved from providing up points best before halftime many thanks to it! With 41 secs left in the half,  and the Birds holding a 10-7 lead Dan Feeney Jersey,  Kirk Cousins found Justin Jefferson deep down the left sideline for a 30-yard gain. The ball popped out thanks to a tackle by Terrell Edmunds and it went with completion DID IT ????? TRUE OR FALSE: The touchback regulation is the most awful regulation in the #NFL and needs to be abolished immediately The official on the area tossed his beanbag down around the half-yard line and stated that the Vikings had first and objective. Given that there were under 2 minutes left in the half the play went to the cubicle and,  well,  it was ruled that the ball went over the pylon suggesting it's a touchback and Philly ball!Justin Jefferson messed up the round over the endzone pylon and it's currently a touchback. #Eagles /cDaCFb0OlL
