Hazelton drew a 15-yard penalty for the infraction on the play and should likely be lighter in the pocketbook for it too.

The talented receiver explained his view on the play.

If that was a late hit I apologize I told buddy on the field like a man! but remember it's a run play I don't have eyes behind me
