· An X-Man may line up at any position on the defense, but cannot advance the ball either by running or passing it. In the event that an X-man takes possession of the football (e.g. recovered fumble, intercepted pass, received kick etc.) the ball is declared dead at the point.
· An X-man can punt the ball. However if an X-man is acting as punter he must punt the ball. In the event that he does not punt the ball, but rather tries to advance the ball beyond the line of scrimmage by running, passing, handing or pitching to a teammate, the ball will be declared dead at the line of scrimmage with a loss of down.

The last 2 minutes of the second half, the clock will stop on everything such as, incomplete passes, out of bounds and penalties, and will not start again until the ball is snapped. It will also stop on first downs to move the chains and will start again as soon as the referee spots the ball.
