I'm sorry, I mean A2 is the one who gets contacted.

I cannot find a rule that says it is OK to contact an eligible receiver behind the LOS. A receiver cannot be contacted if he is NO LONGER A POTENTIAL BLOCKER.

When does someone cease being a potential blocker? I say that if A2 is turned and in the act of catching a pass, he is not a potential blocker. His position on the field does not matter.

If A2 is downfield is he a potential blocker? There is no rule that says he is only a potential blocker when he is behind the LOS.

Forget about where A2 is. WHEN DOES AN OFFENSIVE PLAYER STOP BEING A POTENTIAL BLOCKER?

Like I said in the previous discussion, it does not matter either way. Nothing in the rule says it is OK to contact a offensive player that is no longer a potential blocker.

Peace
