Neutral zone ( gridiron football ) In gridiron football , the neutral zone is an area in which no member of either team may be , other than the person holding the ball . The neutral zone only exists in dead ball situations ( i . e . when play is not ongoing ) . In American football , the neutral zone can be described as the length of the football from one tip to the other when it is spotted ( i . e . placed on a certain spot ) on the field prior to the snap of the ball during a scrimmage down . In Canadian football , the neutral zone is a full one yard in front of the tip of the ball during a scrimmage down . The snapper ( usually the center ) is exempt , as he must place his hand on the ball ( thus entering the neutral zone ) to execute the snap . The neutral zone is much longer for kickoffs and safety kicks , where ten yards separates the kicking team from the receiving team . The kicker and , if used , a holder are allowed to enter this neutral zone . In addition to not being allowed to enter the neutral zone before the kick , the kicking team may not recover their own kick in the neutral zone . Knowing whether the ball has passed beyond the neutral zone or remained in or behind the neutral zone is important during forward pass plays and during scrimmage kicks . An additional definition of the neutral zone came into effect after a September 12 , 2005 , fight between the Philadelphia Eagles ' Jeremiah Trotter and the Atlanta Falcons ' Kevin Mathis that occurred prior to the opening kickoff . The NFL then instituted a rule that each end of the field from the end zone to the 45 - yard line is reserved for one team , and that no player other than a kicker may be between the 45 - yard lines prior to the game .
