Another example: B intercepts a pass in his endzone. While attempting to run it out (he's still in the edzone), he throws a backward pass. His teammate muffs it and it goes over the end line.

Touchback

Even if B carries the ball out of the EZ, it's a touchback

By out of the endzone, let's make sure we mean out of the BACK of the endzone, not into the field of play.

Or the side of the end zone

I apologize, I read "Carried the ball out of the end zone" to mean that they re-entered the field of play with it.
