None of the receivers runs a route deeper than 10 yards. The illegal participant appears to enter the field from around B's 30 yard line. Another thing that amazed me is the position of the BJ. He's near the sideline looking in at the play. I'd expect him to be closer to the middle of the field or at least looking to the outside.
I shared the video with the rest of my crew. While discussing this my R stated the following, "That would not happen to us - our Back Judge and Wing officials are too sharp to let that occur!!"
My reply, "I wouldn't be too quick to claim that we wouldn't catch this infraction. Without looking back at the video, I believe it's the second receiver who went out of bounds. That would be the BJ's key and he'd probably see that. The next thing you know the QB is tossing a long pass and as you turn you see a receiver in position to make a play on the ball. We're all left scratching our heads and teasing our BJ for letting a receiver get behind him. I doubt that anyone would actually see the player come off the sideline."
