I need clarification of this rule. The way I understand it, the ball can be handed off in front of the hander (the QB) to the receiver of the hand off if the receiver is a TE or lineman, but not if the receiver is a back or split end. Is this correct? I sometimes hesitate on this call because with all the other things to key on, when you do see a forward handoff, determining whether the receiver was a TE or not gets lost in the shuffle. Any advice on how to catch this better? (I appologize for the term 'receiver' being used here; I realize this term is usually reserved for passes.)
