Offensive lineman are not allowed past the line of scrimmage prior to a pass. He could catch a screen pass behind the line though. Or they'd have to declare him eligible before the play. When I played flag football we used to do center sneaks. The ball has to touch the QB hands to be considered a hand off though. I don't think that would work well in tackle football, but in flag football where they only had a couple people rushing you could easily get 5-10 yards before anyone noticed.
No, the offensive line can't catch a pass

Yes. Every level of football acknowledges this.
Playing football. I was trying to catch a pass and the ball slammed into my finger.
Pass DefendedAny pass which a defender, through contact with the football, causes to be incompleteSo basically when a receiver is about to catch a ball, but the DB knocks it out of their hands.
No. The ball is dead as of the illegal touch.
A hitch is a pattern where the receiver runs upfield then stops and moves toward QB for the catch
In American Football, if a player has one foot out of bounds when he catches the football, he is out of bounds. If he has is in bounds when he catches the football then he caught it and it is a completed catch. If the player goes out of bounds and comes back in bounds and catches the football it is still an incomplete pass. However, if he was knocked out of bounds or if the ball was tipped, it may be a completed pass. The rules keep changing at all levels of the game.
In football, a pass is when a player throws the ball to a teammate. It is executed by the quarterback throwing the ball to a receiver down the field. The receiver tries to catch the ball while defenders try to stop them.
All players except interior offensive linemen are eligible to receive a pass. This includes quarterbacks, punters and kickers.
Alternate receiving yards in football refer to the yards gained by a player when they are not the primary target of a pass, such as when they catch a deflected ball. Receiving yards, on the other hand, are the total yards gained by a player when they are the intended target of a pass and successfully catch the ball.
No. In NFL football, once a ball hits the uprights (goal post), whether from a pass or a missed field goal or a punt, it is out of play.
