Henery got killed sometime on this type of play (maybe he dropped the snap and rolled out, but he was outside), no foul called.  Give them it was at least close, but that should not be a penalty if this was the case.

If that's the case, perhaps. I just don't know if it is or isn't. I've only ever heard the 'tackle box' referenced on a standard down. I don't think I've ever heard it referenced on a punt play. I don't think the same rules apply to a punt.

 

I agree it's a cheeky penalty and is akin to flopping, but that's what the rules state. If you touch the punter without hitting the ball then it's a penalty. We'd do the same thing if given the opportunity.
