It was rather more than one step. He had plenty of time to pull up or veer off or aim lower after the ball went through Brown's hands.He took one step after the ball passed through Brown's hands before making the hit so I wouldn't call it late. It was definitely a head shot.
Anyhow, a head shot on a defenseless player makes it a penalty regardless of the number of steps.
