if it hit a lineman its an illegal touch because Linemen are not elligeble recievers for the most part, there is an exception to that on what is called a tackle eligible play (basically an OT lines up in the TE position and has to report as a reciever to the offical)

I believe the qb probably threw the ball too low (or missed a rb on a screen) and hit a lineman and that makes it an illegal touch.
