Rule 8 Section 5. The right tackle, Cameron Fleming, reported eligible on the previous play second down. Solder reported eligible on third down, but Fleming retains his eligibility as long as he continuously remains in the game.
Players reset to their number eligible or ineligible when one of the following happens: if they sit out for a down, a timeout is called by either team, two-minute warning occurs, a replay review, or the end of the quarter. Fleming would have been legal to line-up at the end of the line on third down, but there were not enough interior lineman on the field to do that. Fleming was required to re-report after each play. On the fly, this was accepted by referee Walt Anderson and the crew. The eligibility prompts were not seen on TV, but the running play clock was shown being reset to 25 between downs, indicating there was some unforeseen circumstance that should not disadvantage the Patriots.
The Solder touchdown play would have been a five-yard illegal formation penalty because Fleming lined up ineligible. However, by Anderson allowing the un-reporting of Fleming, and not signaling to the Colts that Fleming was technically still eligible, it would be inappropriate to flag the Patriots at the snap.
The Colts defense was matched up man-for-man, so they were not mislead. If there was a blown assignment, the Colts would have certainly called a timeout — and may have been successful in getting the timeout restored if they explained the eligibility question.
In a game between the Patriots and Ravens, the Patriots ran a trick play in which a slot receiver was actually playing the right tackle position while in the slot. The lineman in the left tackle position reported as an eligible receiver, while the wide receiver in the slot was ineligible.
This resulted in a big play from the Patriots, much to the Raven's dismay. What are the rules of football? Previous Next. Football Eligible Receiver Rules. Table of Contents. Rules of Eligibility Passing the football is one of the main ways of advancing the ball downfield in the game of football.
NCAA Rules In the NCAA, the determining factor of whether a player is an eligible receiver is their jersey number and their position on the field when the ball is snapped. Exceptions There are some exceptions to the eligibility rules such as a player wearing an eligible jersey number at an ineligible position if a special teams play is occurring.
Reporting Change of Eligibility Additionally, a player whose number makes him ineligible may declare his eligibility to the referee prior to the start of the play.
Executing a punt and defending a Hail Mary seemed like the safest option. I imagine he was quite sore on Saturday night. Kyle Arrington made a fantastic play to shed his receiver and fill the lane to tackle Forsett after 2 yards, while Patrick Chung and Tavon Wilson made nice stops in the run game as well.
The Ravens did a good job of creating separation for their receivers with legal picks and crossing routes. He did a great job of setting up Revis to run a corner route, then planted, cut inside while Revis had his hips turned the wrong way, and caught an easy slant pass for a touchdown.
Revis was this close to recovering to make the play, and got a fingertip on the ball. And in the second half, Revis held Smith without a catch. But when they did, it was effective — the yard touchdown pass to Kamar Aiken, a yard pass to Mike Campanaro, and an yard pass to Kyle Juszczyk on fourth and 1.

The Patriots have six offensive skill players in the game excluding QB Tom Brady , but only five can be eligible receivers. By rule, the three players off the line of scrimmage — Brandon LaFell, Danny Amendola, and Rob Gronkowski — are eligible receivers, and Julian Edelman and Hoomanawanui are both eligible because they are the outside players standing on the line of scrimmage.
