A man in motion has to be five yards behind the line at the snap?
Oh, wait, I read 7-2-7: "Except for the player 'under the snapper'...the player in motion shall be at least 5 yards behind his line of scrimmage at the snap if he started from any position not clearly behind the line..."
So if he's an end (and therefore "not clearly behind the line" because he's on the line), and he goes in motion, he has to be five yards behind the LOS. If he's off the line, he can be closer to the LOS than that.
Sorry for the misunderstanding.
