OT DPI

First and ten at 25 yard line. DPI in end zone. Ball next snapped at ten yard line. Why not half the distance enforcement?

Full 15 from the previous spot.

Except during an extra point, DPI is exempt from half the distance restrictions.

Not actually true. DPI is 15 yards if the previous spot is B-17 or further out and the foul is more than 15 yards from the previous spot. Otherwise the ball is placed on B-2 or the spot of the foul, whichever is closer to the previous spot. If the previous spot is B-2 or closer in the penalty is half the distance.

During extra points the last part changes so that if the previous spot is B-3, half the distance applies. Interestingly if the PS is B-2.5 during a try, half the distance does not apply (holding in the end zone, two false starts).

Thanks. I had seen the ball placed at the two before, just want sure when that enforcement applied.

Applies when the snap is inside the 17 and the DPI occurs in the end zone.
