If you listen to the announcement, the penalty was announced as a hold that occurred during the return. In that case, it would have been a spot enforcement using the 3 and 1 philosophy. Looking back at the play-by-play on NFL.com, the "hold" occurred at the 20 and the new series started on the 10.
Now if they were actually calling the hold for the contact which you refer to, it would have been a post-possession foul and penalized half the distance to the goal from the end of the kick, first and 10 at the 5.5.

Chaos isn't a pit. Chaos is a ladder. Many who try to climb it fail and never get to try again. The fall breaks them. And some, given a chance to climb, they refuse. They cling to the realm, or the gods, or love. Illusions.
Only the ladder is real. The climb is all there is.
