I see it where the runner is following a block and may grab the back of the jersey of his blocker... I have never seen it called. Is it a penalty? Have you ever called it?
Although technically illegal, usually that's done just as a feel thing, and not to transmit a pull. If the runner wasn't actually being pulled by that means, I wouldn't flag it. Didn't we have a thread on this a year ago?
