I&#039;m sure the refs knew the rule. My guess is that with all the confusion going on that nobody noticed him stepping out. I can&#039;t fault the officials on the field, I didn&#039;t see it until I was going through my photos. I do think that the replay officials in the booth should have caught it though and paused the game to look at it.

As far as being placed on the 25, the penalty would have been a live-ball foul. At would be five yards from the previous spot or five yards 
from the spot where the subsequent dead ball belongs to the receiving team.
