I had defensive holding one time this year. I was the LJ on the weak side, so I had the TE as my key. TE released by taking a step outside of the DE who was trying to jam him at the line but missed. DE then grabbed hold if the TE's jersey as he passed by (no longer a potential blocker) and pulled him back between himself and the QB, he then threw the TE to the ground. Of course the defensive coach complained he was just throwing off a potential blocker. That coach never did send me the film clip of my 'horrible' call, he must have forgotten.
