Answer:

Stan's net yardage on those plays was of 26 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

On the first play, Stan ran 32 yards with the ball. But in the second, he lost 6 yards thanks to the action of the rival defense. Therefore, the total of yards obtained by Stan in these plays arises from the difference between 32 and -6, which gives a total of 26 net yards.
