There are really a few more for your outside of the last 2 minutes.
.. such as after any legal kick (there doesn't have to be a change of
possession at the end of this down).
.. after a delay of game..
.. if the play clock get interrupted for whatever reason.
.. start of 2nd or 4th Q (I guess that's too obvious)
.. play ends in the EZ and there is a penalty
.. injury timeout
.. TV timeout
