Assuming there is no change of possession, no team A player can go out of bounds and return, unless he is blocked out. Our mechanic is to bag it when he steps out and to flag it when he comes back. It does not matter if it is a pass or run, it is a foul even if the run or pass goes to the other side of the field. He steps out and comes back, it's a foul.
Why do you bean bag the spot where he went out?
Beats me. Honestly, I really don't know the purpose of the bag, but that is the mechanic we are told to use, so that is what I go with. Personally, I think it is overkill. What is the purpose of NCAA and NFL guys throwing hats when a receiver steps out? I would think they could remember it happening even if their hat(s) were still on their head(s).
