The "exception" absolutely applies to a second player, as long as the first one didn't actually have control. The exception doesnt apply to a 2nd player after the first one gains control. Two different issues.

Agreed. The "exception" applies until team control is gained.
I believe the NF has included the defensive situation in the same article as the jump ball/throw-in situation, so as to not have to add a 4th article under 9-9. That's why it's worded, "the team not in control." Realize that if every single situation that could possibly occur was listed in the rule book in every way that it could occur, the book would be bigger thant the NYC phone book.
To me, it's clear the 9-9-3 does not cover the rebounder. If the NF wants to add it, great. But until then, I've got a violation.
