Can a quarterback receive a pass in the NFL?
According to chicagosports.chicagotribune.com, former NFL Head of Officials Jerry Markbreit answered a similar question with: "To become an eligible pass receiver and have the ability to go legally in motion, a T-formation quarterback must assume the position of a backfield player as in a Shotgun, Single Wing, or Double Wing Formation and be at least one yard behind the line of scrimmage at the snap. If the quarterback goes in motion from the T, he will be penalized for illegal motion and he will also not be eligible to catch a forward pass." In other words, if the quarterback takes the snap standing directly behind the center, he is not eligible to receive a pass. If the quarterback takes the snap in the shotgun formation or is at least one yard behind the line of scrimmage when the ball is snapped, he is eligible to be a pass receiver.
Can a quarterback go for a pass after handing the ball off to a running back or wide receiver?
If a quarterback and the entire ball are in front of the line of scrimmage then a forward pass can no longer be thrown but a lateral is still a legal play. However, by the act of crossing the line of scrimmage, the quarterback does not lose the right to throw a forward pass as long as after crossing the line scrimmage, the ball returns behind and is thrown from behind the line scrimmage.
