How about in college?
With regards to your play, the player is no more at risk than any other legal BBW. In a chop block, the safety isue is that the defender is engaged by a blocker who is blocking high. He has no defense for the blocker who is about to hit him at the knees. That's the difference.

Don't know about college.
