Penalties in football are either 5, 10, or 15 yards, and sometimes just "spot of the foul". When the yardage awarded is more than half the distance to the goal line, the referee will just give half the distance to the goal. Penal fouls occurring in the end zone are usually placed on the 1-yard line or just barely outside the end zone, depending on the league's rules.
