Every single link I have seen says specifically "lowering the head". So running through a ball carrier face up would still be fine.
The article you linked claimed there would have been about 10 hits last year that would have resulted in a ejection under this new rule. So there is no way in hell they outlawed every tackle where the helmet was used in any way.
