Weird Play

[tnroundballref]

On the way to games on Friday night, my white hat puts me in charge of coming up with "stumper" plays to get our minds in tune with what lies ahead. I came up with this one....we could never come up with a definitive ruling, tell me what you think.

A is offense
B is defense

A1 runs a pass route and while doing so, intentionally runs OOB and comes back into the field of play when A2 (QB) throws A1 a pass. B1 comes through A1 (obvious pass interference) and intercepts the ball , runs 5 yards and fumbles where A1 (receiver who ran OOB) recovers.

Several questions came up
1. Can a receiver who has run OOB and comes back in be interfered with?
2. Is it a penalty on A1 for participating in the play after he was OOB.
3. Can team A maintain posession after the recovery by A1?
