Also, because the play was not flagged. Sorry, but if I don't know any better and do not see any of the officials on the field flag this, I assume it is legal. That is all I have to go on.

The video is on the team's website, but the receiver is off camera and it starts at the snap. They don't show what happened before hand.

Sorry, my rant was not aimed at you, it was aimed at officials (including some that I know and should know better) and to a lesser extent coaches and players who should know this rule by now.

There is no legal way to trick the other team into thinking that a player is something other than a player.
