Is this legal? I'm thinking it might be if he timed it right.

Edit: Never mind, apparently it's encroachment. Though I wouldn't trust the refs to call it.
Rule 7, Article 3: Encroachment . It is Encroachment if a defensive player enters the neutral zone and contacts an offensive player or the ball prior to the snap, or if he interferes with the ball during the snap. The play is dead immediately.
