without looking

without looking at the rules I am more inclined to go with MJT on this one. While K can legally touch R in the situation, I believe that tackling R 45 is illegal use of hands IE holding, preventing them from getting to the ball. Had K just come down and knocked him over, I am ok with it. Similar to a receiver in the backfield..you can knock em down but you can't drag em down...
