I had a question about roughing the passer. Rule 2 defines the passer as the player who throws a legal forward pass and goes on to say that he is the passer until the pass is complete, incomplete, intercepted or he moves on to participate in the play. Roughing the passer is charging into the passer or throwing him to the ground after the ball has been thrown. That being said, here is my question:
Ball on the A 45. A8 receives the snap and pitches the ball back to A 26. A 26 throws a forward pass to A88 who goes out of bounds at the 25. After throwing the pass and before continuing participation in the play, A 26 is a) hit by B96 b) thrown to the ground by B96. What is the call, if any? Is A26 protected as a passer?
