Is there any ruling on a forward fumble in NF rules? What would happen if A45 has gained 5 yards, B67 attempts a tackle, ball pops out forward of A 45. Can ANYONE on A pick up the ball and advance it or can only A 45? There appeared to be no mention about a forward fumble in the rule book.

If this is true, then a player could fumble a ball forward purposly if he sees a team mate ahead of the play.
