first of all this is not an unsportsmanlike foul, it is a contact foul. why wouldnt they get another play if it happened during the down? maybe if the penalty is declined the game is over.

They wouldn't get to replay the down because this was a dead ball penalty. The ball was dead when the runner went out of bounds (I'm assuming it was the runner that was hit late). Therefore, it didn't happen during the down.
