I am thinking that this is not true.
A's ball at B's 40. 1st and 10
A10 is running behind the line of scrimmage and fumbles the ball on B's 45. A recovers the ball on B's 38.
Prior to the fumble A55 holds on B's 44.
To me the hold is taking place during the run and the run ends where A10 fumbles the ball. B's 45.
So the penalty will be marked 10 yards back from the end of the run or the spot of a bean bag where the fumble occurs.
A's ball 1 and 25 from A's 45.
Whatcha all think, is this correct?

basic spot would still be previous spot because you had a fumble that originated behind the line of scrimmage. No need to bag A's fumble. The ONLY time I can see bagging a fumble behind the line of scrimmage is if A fumbles, B picks it up, runs to A's side of the line and then fumbles.
