The longest penalty in an NFL game is undefined. A defensive pass interference penalty is assessed from the line of scrimmage to the spot of the foul. If the spot of the foul is 30 yards beyond the line of scrimmage, the penalty is 30 yards. If the spot of the foul is 18 yards past the line of scrimmage, the penalty is 18 yards. If the spot of the foul is 9 yards past the line of scrimmage, the penalty is 9 yards. A defensive pass interference penalty is the only penalty that can be longer than 15 yards.

Unnecessary roughness, unsportsmanlike conduct or delay of game may lead to a fifteen yard penalty in the NFL. There are two kinds, one is five yards and there is a fifteen yard one. But the NFL took out the five yard one in 2008.
i think the guy said 96 yards and that was the longest in history
The penalty spot is 6 meters from the center of the goal, centered at the top of the penalty area. There is a second penalty spot that is 10 meters from the center of the goal, and this is used for the sixth and subsequent accumulated foul in the same half of the game.
yes, that penalty would cause you 15-yards and possibly an ejection from the game, but the ejection part is not likely....most of the time.
Dallas Cowboys in 2006 Dallas Cowboys in 2006. Dallas lined up to kick the game winning FG with :07 seconds to play. The Redskins blocked the kick, and Sean Taylor picked it up and returned it 38 yards before being brought down by an illegal hit. Since no game can end on a defensive penalty, the Redskins were awarded an additional 15 yards due to the penalty, and given an attempt to kick the game winning field goal. Nick Novak connected on the 29 yard FG, and the Redskins won the game.
