Encroachment in football occurs when a defensive player crosses the line of scrimmage before the ball is snapped, resulting in a penalty for the defense. On the other hand, a neutral zone infraction occurs when a defensive player causes an offensive player to move before the snap, resulting in a penalty for the defense.
