Clock after Andre catch

[Arby0359]

I noticed the clock after Andre caught the ball in the 4th (around 8:48) stopped after he ran out of bounds . but the started again 3-4 seconds later and ran till the next play was dead . I always thought when you run out of bounds the clock stops till the play starts... Am I wrong . it wasted about 40sec. off the clock ..

Outside of the final 2 minutes of the first half or the final 5 minutes of the 2nd half, the clock runs unless there is a stoppage of play due to a timeout, injury, change of possession or incomplete pass etc.

 

While the ball is out of the refs hands after a play goes out of bounds, the clock will stop, once the ref has the ball again and it is placed on the field the clock will start again.

I'm pretty sure that's right anyways.

Yep, that's pretty much it.  The stadium clock is official clock.  Line judge is in charge of timing oversight. The clock will restart on any player going out of bounds, after a kickoff, or following the declining of a penalty; except last 2 minutes of first half, or last 5 minutes of 4th quarter or Overtime. Starting and stopping of the official clock is at refs signal.
