  1. player in bounds.


  2. No, it has to go out of bounds in the end zone or a player concedes in the end zone

  3. Article 9

    When a team in its own goal area kicks the ball out of bounds in its own goal area, the ball shall be deemed to have become dead in the goal area and the opponent shall be awarded

    (a) a single point if the ball had been kicked into the goal area by the opponent, or

    (b) a safety touch score if the ball had been kicked, passed or carried into the goal area by the team scored against.

    If the team in its own goal area had gained possession through interception of a forward pass or recovery of an opponent's fumble, there shall be no score and the team shall take possession at its 25 yard line.

    If, under similar circumstances, a team should kick the ball out of bounds in the opponent's goal area without gaining possession, the play shall be ruled as though the opponent had kicked the ball out of its own goal area.
