There is no longer a foul for incidental grasping of the face mask in NFL or the NCAA. This foul does still exist in the Fed and the penalty is 5 yards. In the NFL and NCAA, there is only a foul for a pull, twist or turn. This foul is 15 yards.

There are some that believe (incorrectly) that ANY facemask grab is now a 15yard foul. That is not true under any code.
