".... are you talking about the player committing the DPI in order to tip the ball??"
Yes . I'm talking about the player who gets to the ball after committing a DPI foul on the intended receiver so he can get to the ball. If he has committed DPI to get to and tip the ball (thereby making it uncatchable by the intended receiver) we still have a valid DPI call. He can't "cancel" his own foul by tipping the ball after the fact since by throwing the flag we've already decided that he has fouled and prevented A from having a reasonable opportunity to catch the pass.
