Ahhhhh, I don't think so. The receiver could easily decide to let the ball go over his head and you just stopped the kicking teams possible persuit.

Worse yet, he could have muffed the reception.

Bad idea.. bad..
I understand the original question but it is different than a pass being thrown and Theisey's reasoning hits why it is different right smack on the head.
