Only if he has the ball.AnswerYes. The clock always stops when the ball goes out of bounds. It doesn't matter how it got there. Wrong - Although I don't feel it is a good rule, in college football if a player steps out of bounds going backwards and does not display a foward advance while carrying the ball the clock keeps running.
What happens if a player is dribbling steps out of bounds the ball still in bounds then steps back in bounds and continues dribbling again?
If a player dribbling the ball steps out of bounds while the ball is still in bounds, they lose their status as a player in bounds. When they step back in bounds, they cannot legally continue dribbling until they re-establish themselves in bounds. Specifically, they must ensure both feet are in bounds before they can resume dribbling. If they continue dribbling without re-establishing their position, it results in a turnover.
When a player steps on the out of bounds line and is then bumped out by a defender what is the call?
When a player steps on the out of bounds line, the ball is out of bounds and the opposing team will get possession. It doesn't matter if a defender commits a foul afterwards, the ball was out of bounds first, so this is the call.
In NFL if player is in bounds but the ball is out of bounds is it still a 1st down?

Can a player be called for basketball offsides if they step out of bounds while in possession of the ball"?
No, a player cannot be called for offsides in basketball. The term "offsides" is not used in basketball rules. If a player steps out of bounds while in possession of the ball, it is called a "out of bounds" violation, and the ball is turned over to the opposing team.
Can a player run out of bounds and come back in to make a play?
During the course of play, as long as you reestablish legal position on the court prior to receiving the ball play continues without penalty. An inbounds play may be a different case. I believe you cannot be the first one to touch the inbounded ball if you go out of bounds to shake a defender.
How many steps does it take to walk a football field?
To walk the length of a football field, which is typically 100 yards or 300 feet, the number of steps will vary based on an individual's stride length. On average, a person's stride length is about 2.5 feet. Therefore, it would take approximately 120 steps (300 feet divided by 2.5 feet per step) to walk the length of a football field.
If a kick off returner fumbles the ball in the end zone still in play then steps out of bounds can he come back into the endzone and down the ball?
If a player who was out of bounds steps back in and downs the ball, it would be a touchback, and the ball would be spotted on the 20-yard-line. However, that player would get penalized for illegal participation, bringing the ball back some.
