IMHO, it's just like a pass from BC to FC when the official has a 10-second count going.

In this case, if 10 seconds is reached while the ball is airborne, call it. Reward the defense with the turnover they deserve. But if the ball obtains FC soooo close to the 10 seconds, I'd skip the violation call.

Same thing with your sitch: call it. Reward the defense with the turnover they deserve. If the 5 seconds is reached soooo close to the head and shoulders clearly being past the defender, I'd skip the violation call.
