The DB read the play the whole time and came barreling down, unblocked.

The LB was blocked by OB & the end initially bit on the pulling guard, which caused him to crash in then react back outside. The problem is CEH was too slow to turn upfield and thus the DE forced him to bounce towards the sideline and directly into the DB. If CEH had made a proper quick cut to the inside of OB's block, that DB is isolated outside and does not make that play. CEH likely would have been caught by that DE, considering how slow he was running towards the LOS.
Either that DE is insanely fast, or CEH made a bad read, or CEH is plain slow (probably a combination of all three)
