Now the real question: Is it a Chop Block? Yes.

By Rule 2-3-8, A chop block is a delayed block at the knees or below against and opponent who is in contact with a teammate of the blocker in the free-blocking zone.

This fits the criteria for a chop block.
I guess if you look hard enough, you can find the smallest speck of fly dropping in even a mountain of ground balck pepper.
