Such a non factor in that play. Then to wait to throw a flag. Follow the script nfl

It was absolutely a factor.

But it should( might) not have been called.

A linebacker can't run into a wide receiver running a route. I really can't believe some of you are football fans and bitch about a call like that. 

You can within 5 yards if the ball isn’t the air

He had a step on the DB, which is why the pass was going there, until the LB deliberately stepped into him. It was close enough to "being in the air" that the benefit of the doubt will go to the offense.

Within the area five yards beyond the line of scrimmage, a defensive player may chuck an eligible receiver in front of him. The defender is allowed to maintain continuous and unbroken contact within the five-yard zone, so long as the receiver has not moved beyond a point that is even with the defender.
