I think he's low on the first one too, and can't tell in slo-mo on the 2nd, as the view of the arm is blocked. The third is definitely on the back, not the helmet.

Wish we had the opposite angle.

To answer the OP, if any of these contacts are on the helmet, it's definitely not legal. If they are on the shoulderpads, it's legal - it appears he's just using the defender's momentum against them.

I will say the 2nd one is more likely guilty than not guilty - just can't be 100% sure.
