Football rule question

October 26, 2021 04:46PM
What if a receiver catches the ball while he is rolling over the back of the defender, who himself is completely in bounds, but before the receiver can touch any part of his body on the field of play just rolls over the defender out of bounds. Is that a reception because he was touching the defender who was in bounds or is it out of bounds because the receiver never touched the ground before being out of bounds?

I would presume OOB just like a receiver who catches the ball in the air and is pushed OOB by the defender.
