The way I see it if the ball goes OOB that quickly then there is a good chance that it went over the head of L or LJ if they were at the LOS at the snap. The mechanic has R on the punter's foot and that puts him on the side of the shanked punts. You don't very often hit a ball straight OOB off of the inside of your foot but most are off of the outside of your foot. So if it got OOB that fast to the back of R and R didn't get a good look at it then L or LJ has to do their best to keep a wide view of the field and help on that spot. Maybe even going to the spot where the ball landed OOB and working back to the field (just a wild thought).
My state's mechanics has L and LJ leaving the LOS as the ball passes the ENZ for PSK. This way they know if the ball went downfield or was shanked OOB over their head.
