The play, as you described it, is illegal forward handing.

The lineman must turn and face his goaline and be at least 1 yard behind the los when he receives the ball.

Also, you state that it was a guard who received the ball. The snapper or any player adjecent to the snapper cannot receive a "forward" handoff. It must be a backwards handoff.
