Just my two cents on this question. I have called this an intentional foul, and I have at other times called it a common foul. The time I called it intentional, the defender just stood there, not moving, not trying to play defense at all. Just stood like a statue, took two handfuls (handsful?) of offensive jersey and kept the kid from running his route.
The times when I have called it common, the defender was actively playing defense but got faked out of his jock (her sportsbra) and grabbed the offensive jersey out of instinct.
Just my experience.
