Man in Motion on the Line

[Mike Simonds]

Yes, I agree with you. However, lets say the tight end was late going down into his stance and/or he was in motion illegally along the line of scrimmage at the snap. If he was within the FBZ at the snap and then blocked an opponent below the waist, the way the rule is currently written would penalize him for illegal shift/motion but not for the BBTW.

I just want help to find the justification (with rule references) to charge A with a multiple foul and give B the choice of the 5 or 15 yard penalty. That is why I feel the NF should put back the language requiring A linemen to be stationary at the snap (in the BBTW rules).
