Think that was Reiter for a crackback or blindside block.
You can square up with the guy you’re blocking, but you can’t block them in the shoulder or back.
So LDT could have run to the defender as he was getting up and blocked him normally.. based on the short clip in the OP I’d just assume he thought Pat might run the ball so he was trying to get out in front.
