Some cases would not be: for example, on the back line the receiver touches with toes inbounds and then heels out of bounds. That would be ruled out of bounds.

Let me make sure I'm following. In your "wouldn't count" play are you saying that the toes touch first and then the heels touch OOB?

Yes, as part of a single fluid landing motion. IOW, he doesn't land on his toes, hold it there, and then come down on his heels. He lands toe-heel, ba-dum, with heels OOB.

No catch.
