KDF5,


In this play is A2:

A potential blocker? Yes, by his position between the defender and the runner he is in position to impede B's path to the runner if he decides to.
or
Attempting to block B? No, he's looking away from B and probably has no intention of blocking B.

Since, as you stated, it's an "OR" question and not an "AND" condition; as long as either answer is "Yes", B can legal contact and play through receiver A2.
