  1. This is straight from the NFL rules The home club shall have 36 balls for outdoor games and 24 for indoor games available for testing with a pressure gauge by the referee two hours prior to the starting time of the game to meet with League requirements. Twelve (12) new footballs, sealed in a special box and shipped by the manufacturer, will be opened in the officials' locker room two hours prior to the starting time of the game. These balls are to be specially marked with the letter "k" and used exclusively for the kicking game.

Each team uses their own set of balls. The punter and the kicker each have their own balls that differ slightly in air pressure. There are multiple balls available for rotation for when the balls gets thrown in the dirt or wet etc. I'm not sure when the exact number is, but it's not 1 or 2. It's likely close to 10-15 balls for each team, not counting any extra balls they need for everyone to be able to warm up before the game. Over 50 guys on a team might need more than 15 balls just for snapping, throwing, hand off, and catching warm ups.
