That is precisely what had me confused - - only a LEGAL forward pass is returned to the previous spot upon an incompletion.

IFP from end zone, when pass is incomplete, the basic spot for any subsequent action (next down if declined, enforcement if accepted) is the end of the run. Result will be a safety.

Bob M. thanks again for your professional and courteous replies/posts.
