I don't know what you mean by "what the Fed rule used to be". The current NF rule (and it's been this way since I can remember) is that if the inbounder (I refuse to use the NF designation "thrower-in" - it makes me want to "thrower-up") moves off the spot, it's an inbound violation. It's never a "travel", despite the incorrect mechanic used for this by some officials.
