Yes, officiating on this game was ridiculously tight, probably setting a record for the most obscure illegal shift calls in the last 10 years, but this hit was pretty cut and dried.
It was a late hit out of bounds, and the kind of shit that might not cost us a game against the Titans, but a hell of a lot more likely to cost us a game against the Texans or the Patriots.

Not arguing it should not be a penalty or that he shouldn't do it, it was dumb
I am arguing it was not unprofessional or that he had any negligent intent or harmful intent on the play.
This was not TJ green type of piling jumping we saw for far too long. Was a dumb lapse in judgement he needs to correct.
