In Canada (12 players), only the widest player on the line is eligible, and must be numbered properly (1-39, 70-99) All others on the line are ineligible (the 5 interior linemen, numbered 40-69).

Therefore, for trips on the right, the WR should be on the line and the other two eligible receivers must leave no doubt that they're at least a yard off the LS.

On the left, the TE is eligible and to remain eligible, the WR must also leave no doubt that (s)he is at least a yard off the LS.

On this play, there are 7 eligible pass receivers (the maximum). Everyone except the interior line.
