Give us an example.
My question deals specifically with the offensive player forcing his way between two defenders and tripping as he tries to get through them. If they're not sticking their knee out as he's going through and if they're within 3 feet of each other, aren't the defenders protected should the offensive player fall down or trip as a result of trying to squeeze through?
