On 4th and long today at a junior high game playing by NFHS rules, I had B sacking the the quarterback and as he did, he grabbed the back opening of the helmet and quickly released it. I flagged for a 5 yarder. A's coach was real hot and said "any helmet contact on the QB is an automatic 15 yards."

I thought I would check afterward just to make sure I was right and I can't find it anywhere in the rule book where it states anything like that.

Anyone have any insight?

Thanks for the help.
