He made contact with his thigh, thankfully. It could have been worse and he shouldn't have been going low on Gio. Did Burfict even know who the RB was?

It was a non-tackling drill, so the broader issue of "legal" hits doesn't really apply in this case... Has nothing to do with Gio being cleared or not cleared, it's simply not a tackling drill.
