QB takes direct snap and pops a quick pass to his wideout. Pass was very obviously a backward pass. Both myself and the wing made eye contact, pointed backward. Players just stood there. Probably 4-5 seconds pass, a B player picks ball up throws it toward me. I step out of the way. After another second or two, the light goes off and theres a scramble, B recovers.
Just wondering how some of you guys might handle/ have handled this.
(Also, could you throw a flag for illegal forward pass on the B player for throwing me the ball?)

1.) I would have done the same thing as you
2.) Yes you could throw a flag against B for IFP. The penalty against B would only be a 5 yard penalty so it wouldn't be severe.
