The football player starts at the 20-yard line on one side of the field and ends at the 20-yard line on the other side. Since there are 9 evenly-spaced lines in between, this means there are 9 sections of equal length. Each section represents 10 yards. Therefore, the player ran 9 sections * 10 yards/section = <<9*10=90>>90 yards.
