I believe the NFL rule is very similar to the NCAA rule.


I don't have my NFL rulebook with me, but I believe they wouldn't stop the clock if a fumble or backwards pass goes out of bounds. I will check and see how it is handled and post with a definite answer.

NFL ruling:

No foul. Clock stops but starts when ball is placed. True only during last 2 minutes of either half.
