What foul has he committed? Signal that.

Maybe you're not a football official. It is encroachment if any player from either team enters the neutral zone between the ready-for-play and the snap.

Most officials will talk players out of encroachment if they can, and if they can't they'll flag it, if they do, just before the snap.
