It still isn't a foul unless he returns to the field. Don't let him come back.
Leaving the field and returning or entering the field and leaving are covered by 3-7-4 as illegal substitution.

It should NEVER occur. I have my wingmen protect the huddle during a timeout for just such an occurrence. Preventative officiating.
