Regardless it was still stupid on his part, and anyone in the league would have been called out for that exact same play. If he would have played it smart and clean, he wouldn't have a bullseye on his back next year for the refs and Goodell.
No need to try and make a tackle when you know the ball is incomplete. But as a defender, you still want to leave a mark and you are allowed to hit defenseless (or otherwise) receivers. You just can't hit them in the head or neck area.
