Incident in NJ

[whitehat]

Just a rule detail clarification. By rule this was a "Personal foul" not an "Unsportsmanlike" foul. UNS fouls are "non"- contact behavior like abusive or foul language, taunting, excess celebration, etc., and are always penalized as dead ball fouls from the succeeding spot.

This was actually two fouls 1. A live ball 15 yard Face Mask foul, which would include a replay of the down after the half the distance to the goal yardage penalty from the end of the run. And, 2. Since the striking occurred apparently just as the play ended, a dead ball flagrant "personal foul" would be tacked on as well, half the distance to the goal. And of course an ejection of the player.
