There is a provision for a defender "turning his back" to avoid being legally blocked. I think that's a reasonable interpretation of what happened.

Indeed. This has been so forever. When I was in HS in the 60s/70s, this is what we were taught. A defender cannot escape a block by turning his back. A really old and appropriate provision, albeit one requiring a judgment call.

Still, why was Saffold reaching out his hands?
