When the player is officially downed, knee touches, elbow, head, anything besides hands and feet, wherever the ball is when he is legally downed. For instance his knee hits at the 42, the ball is about a yard in advance at the 43, and when the rest of his body hits the ground the ball is at the 45. The spot would be the 43.
