Really tough call!! If you just "thought it was a possibility" that B was still contacting A while the ball was in the air, I think you handle it just right. If the BJ can gives you help, fine.
If you "strongly suspect" there was contact while the ball is in the air, I see nothing wrong with dropping your flag and asking the BJ if the ball had been thrown. If he says no or didn't see it - pick it up. The BJ may not throw that flag with you closely covering the play and may not even see it if he had receives in his area.
I assume B's contact ended after R was no long a potential blocker and illegal contact was not a consideration.
Some things to consider - How long of a throw was it? Did B's end contact soon enough for that length of throw to get to the area?
