It seems to me that if A has two receivers and the downfield receiver is committing a foul, our BJ MUST have this call.

Any insight to this would be appreciated.

In your situation, the BJ would be the primary official responsible for this call.

The wings and the BJ all have responsibility for OPI. Unlike defensive pass interference, offensive pass interference can occur both before the pass is thrown and also away from the ball so everyone has to watch for it.
