Rules experts: what was the ref doing on our 3rd PAT?

Can't line up directly over the snapper

I don't know the real answer to your question, but it's pretty common for the ref to help out a player in that

Happens often for WR and others. No big deal and we would want the same.

Refs have consistently warned the defensive players in the past.

I’d rather have refs intervene like that than be picky and throw laundry all

In HS, we do this. Gotta protect a defenseless player before worrying about helping the defense.
