1.5.6 Failure to wear required equipment during a down is 15 yd . Failure to properly wear equpment when ball is about to come alive is 5 yds. If you want the answer to your question, no they do not have to decline the penalty to keep the ball as this is a USC foul, succeding spot enforcement.

How can you call failure to wear equipment if you don't know when it came out, during the down. If it is out before the down starts you should then whistle if you are going to call this not after play starts.
