Just reread some of this and it seems that no mater what the ball goes to “X” on offsides, even if the team that is clearing the ball goes offsides. Technically with the rule change a team that is about to get a 4/10 second violation or something like that could go offsides and move the ball up to “X”. (If a team is that smart/good why are they getting the 10 scecond count to begin with…)

I don’t think this is what the rules committee meant to do by this rule change and there may be an addendum coming out.

The offical rule change is:

4-12-4 NEW When the team in possession of the ball is offside, the ball is awarded to the opposing team at the center of the field

the rest are at:
