Honestly, not entirely sure that is a penalty. I believe the distinction between OPI and not OPI is a shove/push. If they are running down the field and a receiver has separation but puts his hand back to keep the defender at bay, I think that is legal.
If someone has clarification on this, that would be great. I just looked up the rule and it does mention a shove and the video used to provide an example of this is nearly identical to Greens case.
