In American football, the longest possible number of yards an offense can gain in one run is typically 99 yards, which occurs when a player carries the ball from their own end zone to the opposing end zone without being tackled. This is the maximum distance on a single play, as the field itself is 100 yards long, but the offense starts from their own 1-yard line. Any gain exceeding this distance would result in a touchdown.
