There could have been interference that the defense worked their way around, no?
Look at the new FED obstruction interpretation. Even if the runner managed to reach around and touch the back of a bag, if he was "denied access" to that portion of the bag closest to him, we have obstruction.
Why couldn't there be interference and yet an out?
I'm not a pro, but I was taught an immediate dead ball meant an
immediate dead ball.
