If R bats: we have illegal batting, 15 yds from previous spot if accepted, 1st and 10 from the 45.
If R muffs, which is accidental because of an unsuccessful attempt to gain possession, then we have a touchback. 1st and 10 from the 20.
As far as the recovery while laying on the endline, the ball is out of bounds because it is touching a player out of bounds, touchback.
