The context that describes a difference of rational numbers is:
**C. a football player loses yards in a game.**
This scenario involves subtracting a value (the yards lost) from a score or yardage, which can be represented as a difference of rational numbers. When a player loses yards, the result is a negative change in their total yardage, demonstrating the concept of calculating the difference.
