About two-minute warning
The two-minute warning is a suspension of play in an American football game that occurs when two minutes remain on the game clock in each half of a game, i.e., near the end of the second and fourth quarters, and overtime. Its effect on play is similar to that of a timeout: the game clock stops and the teams gather to discuss strategy. The suspension of play is two minutes long, the same as the short two-minute intermissions between quarters within each half. The rule is used in levels of professional football and is referred to as the two-minute timeout in the NCAA since 2024 and high school football in Texas since 2025.
