Of course if they shifted into a scrimmage kick formation with the QB & yards deep taking the long snap #41 could take a position on the line between the ends on every play as the numbering requirement is ignored in this situation. In this case #41 is ineligible throughout the down due to his position.

So if a team runs nothing but shotgun, QB seven yards from center, the numbering requirements are waived? Does your C get protection on every snap as well?

By rule, yes. Now, in practice, most shotgun formations don't have the QB that far behind the line.
