When a person faints it's usually temporary & the person can be revived within minutes.Somrone who is unconscious won't respond to attempts to revive him.
Fainting caused by conditions ranging from dehydration, low blood sugar level, low blood pressure to unknown causes often leads to temporary and a short time unconsciousness which may not last more than one (1) minute except tilting to coma.
Offensive players may toss the ball backwards to any player on their team from any area of the playing field. This sideways or backwards toss is called a BACKWARDS PASS. I hope this helps.
