Good question. I know what I would do - I would see if he was able to finish the play as he intended.
IOW, you probably would be best to use your judgement. If I think it affected the play call it.
But bottomline, just if there was a little contact I would not call it based on that fact. There has to be some type of alteration of the play.
That's been my interpretation of this type of play.
Thanks
