I've often seen the widest receiver, who I assume should have been in the back field, up on the line and covering the inside receiver. They both go down on passes and I've heard opposing coaches complain about it. I asked a HL about it once and he said they will not call it if they see the even a little bit of separation between the two. In effect, if they are both on the line but the inside guy is leaning forward more the the wide guy, the wide guy is considered off the line. I don't know the exact ruling or wording they use, I'm just passing on what I was told.
