Travel = no. Kicked ball = yes. That pretty much renders the time out & control portions of the question moot.
Not sure if this can actually be considered a 'kicking' violation? Of course the scenario of how this occurred could explain it. I am thinking its basically a 'type' of a fumble and the ball is lodged between the players' leg.

IMHO....no possession so no travel / and no ability to call T.O. !

Hope someone else can find a case instance for this.

Thanks for the comments....
