The defenseless player call

https://operations.nfl.com/the-rules/nfl-video-rulebook/defenseless-player/

Quote

Prohibited contact against a player who is in a defenseless posture is:

  1. forcibly hitting the defenseless player’s head or neck area with the helmet, facemask, forearm, or shoulder, even if the initial contact is lower than the player’s neck, and regardless of whether the defensive player also uses his arms to tackle the defenseless player by encircling or grasping him

The Rams player hit him in the head area when he was in a defenseless posture.  Should have hit him lower.  The call was correct.
