The ball should be inbounded where it was touched by your other player, since he caused it to go OOB. While there are a few instances in the NF rulebook where rules are designed to prevent a circumvention of the rules (straddling the lane and lifing the foot in the lane then returning it to the lane, being on the floor with the ball and letting go then standing up and then picking it up, etc.), this is not one of them.
BTW - you didn't
call timeout. You only requested it. Mr. Pet Peeve strikes again.
