If the contact is slight and the signal was closer to invalid than valid, I will give K some leeway here. We had one of these in our V game last week. Our B did not throw the flag, but immedately talked to both players (R about giving a stronger signal, and K about being aware of a fair catch signal).

I thought it was a good call at the time of the play, then I saw the play on the game film and was convinced it was the correct no-call. It looks ugly, but it is one of those things where no advantage is really gained.

With all that said, you have to see these plays to rule on them and there is no set-in-stone way to approach these plays without seeing everything.
