Look at it more simply instead of getting into rule specifics, not a single person on that field was playing football when charbonnet picked up that ball, including charbonnet, and 2 points were put on the board. Rules need changed and often are. If anything can happen even after the whistle than the refs shouldn’t have a whistle and can’t throw flags because a player was roughing/blocking another player after a whistle was blown, which has happened multiple times before
