Late Hit

Play: RB is going up the sideline on a long run. The FS has an angle on him. About 5 yds or so before contact, the RB steps out of bounds on the line, but continues to run up the sideline (pretty much whole body is in the field of play since he didn't know he stepped out). Then, basically AS the whistle is being blown, the FS hits the RB, sending him out of bounds and gets flagged for a late hit / hitting the RB out of bounds.

I seen this in a game this weekend and i don't believe this should have been called a late hit out of bounds since the RB wasn't slowing up, the contact didn't really take place out of bounds, and neither player was aware that the RB stepped out of bounds.


What would you guys have called?
