its a touchback and you start on your own 20 yard line If it is determined that your momentum carried you into the end zone, the play is considered a touchback, and the ball will be placed on your 20-yard line. If it is determined that you intentionally carried the ball back from the field of play into the end zone -- for example, if you cleanly fielded the ball at the 1-yard line, and then deliberately stepped backwards into the end zone and took a knee, in an attempt to gain extra yardage with a touchback -- your team will be assessed a safety, and you'll have to kick off from your own 20-yard line.
The ball is spotted at the 2 yard line in the NFL and 3 yard line in College.
From the 15 yard line to the 50 yard line (the center) is 35 yards. It's another 10 yards to the other team's 40 yard line. So the total distance from one team's 15 yard line to the other team's 40 yard line is 45 yards.
