The DB was playing the ball, not trying to make a hit. I see it as incidental contact but I can see it being a hit to the head of a defenseless receiver. It’s a tough one to call.
Isn’t a face mask part of the helmet? Correct me if I’m wrong but pretty sure no part of the defenders head is suppose to hit another player in their head.
100% should've been a penalty. Doesn't matter that he was playing the ball it was helmet to helmet, doesn't matter that it was incidental. The rule is pretty black and white regarding that.
