REPLY: To add to what others have said, if B's 12th guy is in the defensive formation for any more than a few seconds after his replacement enters, the BJ should have caught it and flagged it as a dead ball illegal substitution. It should never have gotten as far as your post says it did. If however, the replacement has just come on and the 12th guy is heading out, I would not call it encroachment. If he doesn't get off the field, it's an illegal substitution simultaneous with the snap.
